RIP California Cajun

[CajunNation]

Rest in Peace Mr. Cali.

I'm ____ed and sad at the same time. He was such a trooper. He was so close to seeing Louisiana finally live up to all that promise. I hope God gives him lifetime front row seats for all Louisiana sports.

Don't screw this up Dr. Maggard.

Oh my, this strikes.

John gave me volumes of advice on running this site, some public lots private, and for that I am permanently grateful.

Miss you CC

RIP to a huge Cajun fan. California Cajun was always the voice of reason even back to the Delphi days. He will truly be missed.

John died unexpectedly. There were no known health problems prior to his death.

He was 62 years old.

So sad. He was a good man and will be missed. Some sort of accident?

Prayers for John and his family. RIP.

RIP John

Cali was one of my favorite posters and we shared the same vision and postings regarding so many issues around UL. Tragic to die so suddenly at such an early age. It won't be the same on this board without him. God bless you, John.

In his last post (12 hours prior) he was happy for Hud that he landed on his feet so soon.

Sorry to see you gone Cali, so soon.

Dang. This is tough. He last posted on here a few days ago. We go back to 1999. Tough loss for the Cajun Nation.

Cali was on the SportsOnly board we started back in 1997.

Godspeed, California Cajun!

My favorite memory of John:

Back in the dark times, we were all ____ing and moaning on the Delphi Board about the sad state of our facilities, especially Cajun Field, which didn't even have doors on the bathroom stalls. So Cali sends an email to Dr. A saying that he was buying less concessions at the football games because of the possibility of having to, er, "recycle" said food without any privacy.

The next home game, there were plywood doors on the bathroom stalls.
