Keri Anne O'Donnell just loved to dance. "She was the one," says her dance instructor, "who got the moves right." At 15 she had a passion for the performing arts - dance, singing or acting.. But on a summer's morning, on her way to the beach with her sister Elyse and some friends, the tire blew on the car in which they were riding. A tragic accident, in which all  were seriously injured. Keri did not survive. But, according to her dad, comedian Frank O'Donnell, Keri lives on through the scholarship fund they created some 12 years ago. They have awarded  more than 200 scholarships, worth tens of thousands of dollars, to aspiring performing artists, O'Donnell says,. "It's great to see these kids continuing to follow their passion in the performing arts. In a way they are keeping Keri alive, at least her spirit is alive," The latest project for the Keri Anne O'Donnell Memorial Scholarship Fund is a Kalendar, a month long event. Learn more about it here, or at Kerisfund.org.
