In Memory Of Cody
Pholks, a tragic loss, California, a GENIUS at Java Script, coding, graphics, has passed away, at a very young age.
He has helped so many, and some of his work...makes up what You see here, as your forum.
Cody (Cali) and I didn't always agree on things, in fact, I have a very long thread saved in my documents, where I and he Slugged it out, over a coding question that had been posted...He was Pure genius Pholks, he will be greatly missed in the world of coding.
Thousands of proboards, and other forums, use his codes, and files for their own forums, For a look at what this young man accomplished, Click SoCal Codes
and scroll down to the catagory.."PB codes"
anyone that has ever seen, used, or tried scripting/coding, will truly be in awe of this young mans talents.
No Cause was listed, just a Statement from the staff at SoCal codes, expressing no one look into the cause of death, below is the statemaent issued:
We really don’t know how to tell you all this, but unfortunately there never is an easy way to say what we're about to say. We have some unfortunate and tragic news to report to SoCal and the entire ProBoards community. We sincerely regret to inform you that on May 19th, our dear friend, Admin, and coding guru, Cody, who is best known as "California", has passed on. He is survived by his parents and this forum. He was an amazing coder and a great friend to us all. Cali has created many codes that have made many forums look and function professionally. He will probably be best known for assisting others with the patience of a saint. His codes are among the best that ProBoards has seen and our loss of Cody will be heavily felt throughout the PB community.
Out of respect for Cody’s privacy, (and his family's) we won’t disclose how this unfortunate loss occurred. Please forgive us for being so private about something so important and tragic, but if you knew Cali at all, you’d know he was a very private person, and we wouldn’t dare intrude upon that. So please respect Cali’s wishes, those of his friends, and most importantly… the wishes of his family, by not asking about the details of his passing. We know it’s hard to accept without any clear answers, and we’re sorry for that, but we the staff hardly know much more than you. We know it’s hard to believe, and we would love to tell you this is just some sick and twisted joke, but we’re completely heartbroken to inform you that it’s not.

Pholks To pay my respects, for the next few days, I will remove my signature, and my fancy Random avatar coding, to display a tribute avatar, and signature.
Cali, though we never met, your Help, guidance and even your debating with me, were always appreciated.
No, we didn't always agree, and that lead to both of us discovering something...New.
May the Great Spirit be with You as you walk the Spirit Path my Phriend...
