    GROGNARDIA: Sadly, This is Accurate

    His legacy precedes him

    (I felt this more relevant to gaming than General, feel free to move it if needed)

    I saw him just last year and he seemed in such good health =/ I didn't even know he had cancer. I'm really sad to see him gone.

    Wow this sucks. Makes me reminisce of my high school days playing Magic the Gathering and D&D every night.

    Guaranteed BG would not even exist if not for this guy (and Gary). Rest in peace.

    I didn't even know he existed, and now he is gone!

    Interesting that the second of the pair dies soon after the first.

    I know Gy gets more credit, but this guy right here created the dungeon crawl. Dungeons more than even the rules set the tone for every RPG or attempts to simulate them on computer/console.
