A North Andover native is honoring her late grandfather with a concert to benefit the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America.
Michelle Canning’s grandfather, Kenneth Canning, died of Alzheimer’s at 82. This is the 15th anniversary of his granddaughter’s “A Night on the Edge,” which has raised $95,000 for the research and advocacy nonprofit. The younger Canning hopes to exceed $100,000 with this year’s concert.
Canning and her Michelle Canning Band will perform Saturday, March 21, at 7 p.m. at the Chelmsford-Lowell Elks Lodge No. 2310, 300 Littleton Road, Chelmsford. Tickets are $25 for adults and $15 for children.
