John Robbins

I just remember him and his son speaking on different sites and saw the respect they had for each other. That spoke loudly. A father/son bond like that is special

John, together with his son, Ocean, have inspired me to make healthier food choices and to begin moving toward a Whole Food Plant Based diet. His work for decades has heralded needed dietary changes, especially in the United States and among our expanding over-weight youth.

He will be sorely missed, as I always enjoyed his studied insights and the robust and informative conversations between Ocean and him and how they promoted a healthier nutritional lifestyle for all of us. I joined their Whole Life Club several years ago to stay in touch with the work of this great man and his son.

Thank you, John, for pioneering these needed changes in our country, in the world.

I am very sorry to learn about his death - just now.
I am a reader of his book "Healthy at 100 " which has considerably influenced my knowledge and attitude about foods.
It is sad that he didn't live to be 100!
I wish his family and friends my heartfelt sympathy.
May they get the courage to continue his legacy.

Ocean and family, my heart goes out to you as you mourn, as well as celebrate the life of your father, grandfather, and brother. I never met your father but it was one of the wishes of my life that I might. His path to healthy living inspires me every day since I found the food revolution back in 2012. I have watched the series every year since it began. It keeps me grounded and inspired to keep on this path. I have no support network, except for what you, Ocean and your father have so generously given me, a person you don't even know. I have shed tears for your loss, as well as the world's loss of a great, and good man. I often think of his prayer as a guide for my life, "May all be fed. May all be healed. May all be loved." I am privileged to have these words etched in my mind. Thank you for inheriting your father's goodness, Ocean. What a privilege to have known and been raised by him. May you be healed in your time of sadness. --Jenny Lowe, Springville, Utah

My heart goes out to John's family. As I believe life is eternal, John 's work and passion on the other side is going to continue. Thank you John for living your passion God bless you on your new journey of adventure.

I am so sorry to learn today that John had passed away this year. I first learned of him when I was first diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. I was really scared and worried that I would die like my Father. I learned how to eat healthier through his different presentations and after 7 years of going plant based eating, I am much healthier that before. Thank You John and Ocean for getting me away from the Standard American Diet.

In 1985 my husband and I moved to a small farm in south central Colorado. We found the book Diet for a New America. It changed our lives and the lives of our children. Still 40 years later we remain vegan. John will always be our hero and he has helped us remain free from obesity and our bodies remain healthy even at the age of 74 and 70. We take absolutely no medications. I´m so sorry to hear about John´s passing. It is so wonderful that his son Ocean will carry on John´s mission and message. May he rest in peace

Very sad to hear about Mr. Robbins' departure. His book is so wonderful, real and honest. Hope he is in peace without any pain. God bless him and his Family. RIP, Mr. Robbins.

A life well lived in service to others! God bless and keep him.

John, your life and your choices have been an inspirational support for me. Thank you for your shared life. Rest in peace. Job well done.
Ocean, my prayers are with you, your family, and your team as you grieve and transition into this new place. Your father has anchored you solidly. You'll do well.
