Now age 50, he says it was a path and lifestyle he chose as a young college student, largely due to the influence of his peers.  He belongs to a food co-op so he can acquire the food items he doesn&#8217;t grow himself.  He and his wife, whom he met at the co-op 25 years ago, eat no meat, no dairy, no eggs.  They have no health issues at age 50 and enjoy an active life of cycling, swimming, skydiving and backpacking.<\/p>\n<p>And they&#8217;re super passionate about Serving Others.  They support their church, and several community organizations and were seeking to do more but lacked the funds.
