He planted seeds that are sure to bear fruit long after we are all gone. But we all must help tend the garden while we can

Hi Jim, Haven’t seen you in many years, but always appreciated all of the amazing work that you did to help us live in a less resource depleting way so that all beings could flourish. Wishing you well and sending love.

Crane Please convey my regards to Jim. I am sorry we didn’t keep in touch, but we always were about now and not our histories. I have tried to live by the ecological and humanitarian principles we promoted as ELSI and SCAT. No one but Jim could have kept that vision alive all these years. The new green deal is not so new, is it? Peace my friend.

Hi Jim Bell! I hope you have a full recovery soon! I think of you often and you’ve always been a mentor to me! It seems like people are just now starting to think about true cost pricing and you pushed for that over 30 yrs ago!! If everyone thought and acted as bravely and committed as you we wouldn’t be in global warming now. And I’ll never forget your parties!! I could go on and on there… David Lyndley, Micheal Jackson, your French party, Viking Party, come dressed as ur favorite animal, etc, etc!! You’ve added much joy and perspective to my life! Thank you.

Jim Bell,
You were good at so many things. One I bet most people don’t know was your basketball prowess. When you, my brother Danny and I, along with others battled under the cool outdoor court we had at La Paz, our games were epic. I want to once again commend you on your talent, moves and great shooting ability. Thank you for that and all the great work you’ve done… Richard Ybarra
Thank you for all you are and have been to the community. You are a rock, a legend, and an icon. Rest easy friend. You will never ever be forgotten. Peace out ??
