It's with regret I have to inform you, Christina (Sparkychick) has passed

It's with regret I have to inform you that Christina, the Sparkychick we all knew and loved, has passed.

I've just spoken to somebody on her phone and she informed me of the sad news. I'd been chatting to her about making a badge or 'golden spoon' as somebody put it, to give to those who are hitting or in retirement and deserve the nod. And I only spoke last week and she was up for it and asking about how much control we have over the CSS style of it, I said all, to which she was pleased.

But I guess it was her time.

Thank you for all your hard work with the forum over the past few years even before coming on as staff she was super helpful and knowledgeable and willing to share it with all budding sparks.

You'll always be remembered Sparky Chick.

Sorry to hear that.

So sorry to hear that she has succumbed to her Cancer, we had corresponded about it many times and neither of us could understand why so many considered it a word that could not be mentioned or talked about, some of the symptoms can be so benign that they are ignored until it's too late.

RIP Christina see you soon.
