Your total years on this Big Blue Marble may be a secret, but the beauty and inspiration you’ve given us for lo these many years are well-known — and equally immeasurable.
We wish you a most-splendid day… and please know that every one of us has been inspired by your and Anne’s beautiful lives. May the strength of Volcan be with you on this day and many years to come! And…if you care to…Help us surprise James with funds for THE HUBBELL ARCHIVE PROJECT. We know he’ll be very appreciative. >> You can make your gift here
Leave a birthday message for James below. We’ll present them to him on October 23rd with a card containing all your birthday greetings. And don’t forget, shhhh…it’s a surprise!
The above photo was taken a year ago after the performance of “Queen Calafia’s Pilgrimage” when students from Spencer Valley School unfurled a “Happy Birthday” banner for James.
You are a gift to all of us. Best wishes for a beautiful birthday. Carol and Peter

Dear Jim,
You have had such an impact on the world…just scrolling down through the Birthday wishes took 15 minutes!
I am filled with joy when I think of the times I had the opportunity to work for your endeavors…and I loved every minute.
I will never forget the impact the beauty of your home had on my daughter (9 at the time). She came out of the Boy’s house and leaned her head into me and said, “Mom, why do I feel like weeping?!”
Joy lives in Beauty. And it can make us weep.
Love you and have a lovely birthday.
