Graphic Novel Reading Group discussion

Sorry to let all of you know the former group moderator who started this group four years ago passed away last week. He was killed by a drunk driver. My condolences to his family.

That is tragic news. I'm so sorry to hear that.

That is so, so sad. :( I'm very sorry to hear this as well.

I'm very sorry to hear this... my condolences to his family...

This is terrible news. Condolences to his family.

Even if it was only in a small way, he touched the lives of everyone of us here. Rest well.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I only knew him from his posts here, but he was always so friendly and welcoming--I'm going to miss him.

That is so sad and tragic. He connected so many of us sequential art & comic fans. Thank you Tommy for carrying on, even if I am swamped & can't interact.

OH wow! I am so sad to hear about this. Tommy I moderate a few groups on here so if you ever need help or advice be sure to ask me. So nice of you to step up and run the group.

I am very saddened to hear about Kenny. My condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Oh no! That's horrible to hear. Kenny was such a nice guy. My condolences.

I can;t say I knew Kenny well, but news like this is always sad. RIP.

Terrible news. My condolences to his friends and family.

I wondered why all of his emails suddenly disappeared from my inbox.

Edit: Which is actually kind of rude of Goodreads. It's like Kenny suddenly became a non-person.

Terrible news. My condolences to his family. Will miss him in this group

Oh man, I didn't knew Kenny that well but as long as I was a co-moderator for the group he was always very friendly and all this years he was moderating the group he never failed to update and send the messages.

He did a great thing with starting this group so I'll always be thankful to him for that.

Rest in peace Kenny :(

Wow really sad to hear this. Even not knowing him well, he started this community and brought so many people together. My condolences to his family.

Sad. Thoughts for the family.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I really appreciated his kindness and enthusiasm. How terrible for his family. Thanks for letting us know.

I was wondering why I couldn't find the group listed for a while. I just hope his family is doing okay.

This is terrible. Thoughts to his loved ones.

Rest in peace Kenny :(

I agree! Some of them were personal emails to me; we discussed quite a few books together. I just found out because I came on to tell him of a graphic novel/book that I thought he would so enjoy.

I feel sadness over the loss of such a kind, genuine person. If Kenny's friends and relatives are reading, know that he is very much missed by us as well. We're very sorry for your loss...

Rest in peace, Kenny. I am so saddened by the news. He seemed like a good man and was a great moderator.

Condolences. R.I.P

This is the thread. I just had a thought about the founder of this group. I hope he is doing well up there. I remember how he grew this group and was so very VERY active for years, until he was killed by a drunk driver.

My Condolences.

I'm so sorry to hear about Kenny's passing. While I am a relative newcomer to the group, I can definitely say that the community he created here has been so welcoming and enjoyable. I can think of no better way to honor his memory than by continuing to foster and share the love of this art form that meant so much to him.

Very sorry to hear about it. May Kenny Rest in peace and my prayers are with his family.
