Gavin McComas, Sundance’s General Manager and Proprietor passed away around 7 PM on November 25, 2025, surrounded by close friends and family. His unique combination of compassion, intelligence and service was his great gift to our community. Gavin dedicated his life and fortune to providing our community with a food store that supported the health of its customers, the staff, the community and the world. Gavin made sure that this community resource would carry on beyond his passing by donating Sundance to a Perpetual Purpose Trust which will ensure Sundance’s continued presence in our community for the foreseeable future.
We miss him already, and will do our best to follow his example and principles, guiding Sundance with the values he both embodied and clearly stated: reciprocity, doing to all as we would be done by, Geborgenheit, striving to be a warm, comfortable place to shop and connect, camaraderie, treating each other with love and respect, and eudaemonia, feeling good by working for the greater good.
