Popular Post Larryw7 Posted November 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2023 This is truly a shock. Life is so precious and fragile. Live everyday as if it's your last. Because it very well could be Eternal Rest Grant unto him O Lord. May he rest in peace.

Popular Post Get Marwood & I Posted December 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2023 Frank Zappa died 30 years ago today, which reminded me of Bird. I re-watched an old episode of Doctor Who today and this is what he wrote in the dust: Gone, but not forgotten. bc, Cat, Dave2739 and 8 others 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR.X Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Terrible news. Sold to him a few times. Seemed like a pretty laid back guy, and easy to talk to. greggy and ADAMANTIUM 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RCheli Posted January 9 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 9 I got this note from Sean's wife to share with the group: Thank you to everyone on the CGC boards who wrote such kind and eloquent posts about Sean. They were incredibly meaningful to me, our daughters, and the rest of our family. He really loved talking with all of you over the years, but I don’t think he would’ve expected this kind of outpouring. For those of you who really dug his Rick Geary Frank Zappa avatar, I thought you might like to see where we have the original hanging in our home. It’s on the wall next to an oversized Zappa poster that Sean bought at Cheap Thrills record store in New Brunswick NJ when he was a student at Rutgers c. 1988. I had it restored for him about 15 years after he bought it, and it’s been hanging on our wall since then. We were both psyched to have the 2012 Geary pen and ink accompany it. -Bonnie Wasielewski Roo_Phillip, PopKulture, Turtle and 38 others 39 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

World Devourer Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 On 11/25/2023 at 6:20 AM, RCheli said: It's with my deepest sadness that I have to share that "bird" -- Sean Wasielewski -- passed away suddenly on Wednesday. He was a man with many opinions, and he and I had some great discussions about comics and life over the years both here and -- even better -- face-to-face. I spoke with his wife earlier today and she let me know that a service will take place soon, although they don't have the details yet. I suspect it will be near the shore in Jersey where he lived, and I'll post that information here when I get it. Along with his wife, he had two lovely daughters. Edited to include obituary: https://www.shorepointfh.com/obituary/Sean-Wasielewski I've just seen this. Was this the gent with the avatar of the cartoon of the gent with the 70s looking hair and beard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
World Devourer Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I just had a quick look - it was. What a shame. I always like his sensible observations. RIP my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
