The CD, titled "Resident Hippy," is available online starting Wednesday. It costs $10, plus shipping and handling.

It includes songs O'Neil, a self-taught musician, recorded as an undergraduate at Lafayette College and at Virginia Tech.

Meanwhile, a memorial fund in O'Neil's honor is raising money for college scholarships for graduating seniors of Lincoln High School.
