1968 ~ 2017

James Einhorn was born on February 26, 1968 in Fort Worth TX. He

passed away on March 15, 2017 at the age of 49. He had been battling

liver disease for some time that had been in remission until he recently

found out the disease had returned. His heart stopped due to

complications from this disease.

James was adopted at 2 weeks of age by Robert B. Einhorn and Patricia

B. Bradford from an adoption agency in Ft. Worth TX. He lived in

Abilene TX for a short time as a baby, but he grew up in Lakewood CO

with his siblings, Libby & Cathie Einhorn.

After high school he went to Columbine Beauty School in Lakewood

CO where he graduated in 1988 and became a hair stylist soon making

his way to Taos, New Mexico, where he quickly became part of that

community. He then moved to El Paso Tx in 2010 where he met and

made his home with Lane Cornforth & Ken Painter. Soon the trio

moved to Colorado Springs in 2011 to be closer to James’s Mother

Patricia and sister Cathie. James built many lifelong friendships with

the broad clientele that sat in his chair as well as those that worked by

his side at Years Ahead Salon, Sami Salon & Spa and Eden Salon.

James had a calling to give, and volunteered at ESM, (Ecumenical

Social Ministries), in Colorado Springs providing free hair cuts to

people in need.

James is preceded in death by his father Robert B. Einhorn who passed

away in June, 2014 in Houston TX and his grandparents Hugh B.
