Elijah Stone

[Eric Iverson]

The forum is about J, not people. But sometimes someone is so exceptional that they break this mold.

Elijah Stone is one. His contributions to the J community started in 2021 when he was 19. He gave the best answers to forum questions ever. He went on to make serious contributions to the J Engine. And J was just a tiny part of his full life. Watching him walk down a street, you realized his real interest was dance, not math.

Elijah was magical, smart, witty, graceful, gentle, and very private.

Elijah passed away on September 9th.

Our condolences to his family, partner, and all who will miss him.

He will be deeply missed. Thank you for the announcement.

Best Regards, 

Luke De La Cruz

So sorry to hear about his untimely death.

He contributed a lot to our small community in a very short time.

Thanks for letting us know.

Do we know how he came about to learn about J?
Where was he educated?

ELijah was a very private person. Other than acknowledging that he will be missed, I don't think other discussion is fruitful or appropriate.
