He loved nature and music, and lived simply, counting other people more important than himself. He was brilliant, and gentle, and considered greed the utmost of foolishness. His dream was to belong to a community that changed the world through example: a community focused on sustainable living and intentionality, non-exploitative and vibrant.
His family covets your prayers, and thanks you for the continued space to grieve during this difficult time. Memorial donations honoring James' vision for a better future can be made to Dancing Rabbit, Inc.
"Our choices impact those around us, even people on the other side of the planet you're never going to meet. Compassion means that we stop pretending that nothing is happening, or that our choices are ethically neutral, because they are not ethically neutral. Compassion means staying connected to that reality." - Ma'ikwe Schaub, Executive Director at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage
