And his obituary: https://www.brown-forward.com/obituaries/james-storer

He had been blinded at the age of six, when a tear-gas gun in a Detroit rubbish pile accidentally went off. "But he was hardly impaired by his sight deficiency," said Jordan. "He just didn't hold back." Jim led a strikingly active life. He played both golf and the piano, taking a particular interest in jazz. He traveled extensively, sometimes on behalf of Kenyon. He also did graduate work, primarily in history, at Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, Case Western University, and the University of North Carolina. "He had a delightful sense of humor," said Givens, "and a very, very sharp mind."

Jim also chaired the Grand River Partners, an organization dedicated to preserving land in the Grand River Watershed in northeast Ohio. His home, Walden II, is located on a 188-are nature preserve in the area. Jim was proud of this lovely sanctuary. On many occasions, Jim generously opened his Walden II home to clients of Cleveland Sight Center of which many returned year after year to enjoy its splendor.

That's where the park is now located.

Sounds like he was very involved in many community and philanthropic efforts throughout his life, particularly Kenyon College.

Thats beautiful
