An Obituary
“Let’s pretend that once upon a time people were actually cool with each other. There were no rich or poor. There was no crime. War had not been invented. Property was as yet only loosely defined and the idea that people might presume to own the earth itself was unheard of, even incomprehensible.” -Len 10/28/07 Stories from Beyond the Box
Leonard James Harrison, 63, passed away at San Francisco General Hospital on April 6, 2009 after a short battle with cancer. Born on Aug. 18, 1945, Len grew up in Walnut Creek and lived around the Bay Area throughout his life. His numerous careers included working as an instructional designer, a web developer, a filmmaker, and an author, among others. He led a life that brought him on countless adventures and allowed him to help many people along the way. A practicing Buddhist, he said shortly before death that he hoped to be reincarnated somewhere in South America so that he could join in the next revolution. Len will be sorely missed by his mother Mae, his brother Harland, his son Josh, and Liz, the mother of his son. And of course, the thousands of friends he made throughout this lifetime. A memorial service will be held in San Francisco during Memorial Day Weekend.
