Musician Larry Flint and the Rev. Dorothy Austin join others in song as approximately 450 friends, co-workers, and fans attended a memorial service for Brian Sinclair ’62, longtime Harvard employee and co-host of the WHRB country music radio show ‘Hillbilly at Harvard,’ on Friday (Jan. 24) at the Memorial Church. Friends, including ‘Hillbilly’ co-host Lynn Joiner ’63, former ‘Hillbilly’ host Dave Schmalz ’63, and Office of Human Resources co-worker Joanne Klys ’84 remembered ‘Sinc,’ as he was known to almost everyone, with stories both poignant and funny. Local country musician John Lincoln Wright and his band performed ‘Not a Day Goes By,’ a song Wright wrote for Sinclair.
