@kevincainmemorialfoundation/Facebook A front lawn of a Delaware County home became a collection site for the airing of grievances, a Festivus tradition from the long-running NBC sitcom Seinfeld. For each grievance received, a donation is made to the Kevin Cain Memorial Fund, which supports cancer patients and their families in the Delaware Valley.
In a year full of heartache and disruption, the timing could not have been more perfect for a celebration of Festivus, the obscure holiday popularized on Seinfeld by the late Jerry Stiller as Frank Costanza.
The Dec. 23 secular celebration was invented by the family of Daniel O Keefe, who was a writer on Seinfeld when the show parodied the holiday in the 1997 episode titled The Strike.
