Sad news — Denny Lien, known on CIDU as Shrug, has passed away.
The news, and a site for memorial comments, are at https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/terrygarey/journal/view/id/643b1b995f8fc53e6530d17b
I saw some memorial comments first at Comics Curmudgeon, where Shrug also was a frequent commenter.

My condolences to the family. I always appreciated his comments.

Ditto – in particular to “Mrs. Shrug“, as he always put it.

P.S. For those who who like to see the initial announcement and the immediate reactions, it was in Saturday’s Curmudgeon (comment #136). Shrug’s last comment there appears to be 7:59am on Friday (#98).

Long time lurker, occasional poster. Where are the cats? My boys wouldn’t mind a 3rd companion. I’m in southeast PA.

Hi, Lola. There was some discussion of who would be taking care of the Shrug cats, but it was at the CaringBridge site, not here.

It looks like the family has established a less commercial “Kudos board” memorial at this site, and has transferred the comments from the first one as well as adding some pictures.
