Gary Gygax Dead?

[Nytmare]

I just started getting word through the grapevine that Gary Gygax passed away today. I haven't been able to find anything concrete to support this, has anyone heard anything more official than Wikipedia?

Steve Chenault of Troll Lord Games made the announcement earlier this morning.

It is almost too much to get my mind about. But I've just had news that our dear Dungeon Master has passed away. Ernie called this morning, he thought we should let the fans know. He's just sent an email out.

Gary was in his home when he gathered himself up to cross the great divide.

He was a very dear friend of mine. And I will miss him so.

God Speed My Friend.

Steve

There's a thread in the General Discussion area as well. Gary will be missed.

We'd love it if people could use the thread in the General forum, please. Many thanks.
