Music for Mom 2025 brought together friends, families, and the Arnprior and area communities for an evening of music, remembrance, and celebration at the Arnprior Legion. Hosted in part by Indie Vibe Network in support of the Arnprior Regional Hospital Foundation, the event honoured the life and legacy of long-time hospital volunteer Sharron O’Neill, with all proceeds dedicated to the Foundation’s Hope for Scope Campaign 2025.

 

The night opened with a heartfelt performance by Sharron’s son, local musician Ryan O’Neill, who shared stories, memories, and some of his mother’s favourite songs. His set created a warm, emotional atmosphere that connected the audience to the purpose of the evening. The celebration continued with a high-energy performance by Ottawa party band Five Dollar Down, who kept the crowd dancing, singing, and smiling throughout the night.

 

Guests enjoyed a vibrant silent auction, community donations, and opportunities to support the Arnprior Hospital Foundation, all while connecting with friends, neighbours, and supporters of local music.

 

With touching tributes, powerful musical performances, and heartfelt community involvement, Music for Mom highlighted the impact of coming together to honour a life, uplift a family, and support the future of local healthcare.
