In Memory of J. Wallace

Today I learned that my friend J. Wallace passed away in June 2024.

J was more than a friend. He was a contributing writer for my Climate of Our Future blog and someone whose passion for our oceans was truly inspiring. One of the stories he often spoke about was Adelita, the remarkable loggerhead sea turtle whose incredible journey across the Pacific helped change our understanding of sea turtle migration forever.

Years ago I created LivBlue at Great Canadian Grid as a tribute to J's work and his dedication to our oceans. When that grid closed, LivBlue found a new home on 3HG, where it continues to celebrate marine life and ocean conservation.

In his memory, I have created the Adelita Choker, a silver sea turtle necklace inspired by the grace, endurance, and extraordinary journey of Adelita. I hope it serves as a small reminder that one person's passion can inspire others for years to come.

If you'd like to visit LivBlue, explore the underwater world, and receive the Adelita Choker, you're warmly invited.

Thank you, J, for sharing your knowledge, your friendship, and your love for the sea. Your work continues to ripple outward, just like the tides.
