James was many things;  a son to Rick Munoz and Judi Brambrink, a brother to Elizabeth Hawbaker, Crystal Glover and Brittany Munoz, a husband to Nancy Lee and father to Orion, Valerie and Apollo, a teacher to countless students including his niece and nephew, Luke and Sarah, and a friend to almost everyone he met.

James had a great capacity for love of all things in nature, animals, family and most of all, music.  His greatest gift was teaching and claimed that teaching music was his super power.  There is a treasure trove of music videos, poems and music compositions to re-visit any time we miss him.

He left us too soon, but our great faith and our hope of Heaven assures all who knew James  he is now playing music with angels and we will be united to love and laugh again.
