NEWS: Protoculture Addicts Writer Emru Townsend Passes Away

Wow....Emru was one of my favorite writers in the magazine, and I was saddened to hear that the transplant ultimately failed to send the cancer into remission.

Having lost someone close to me due to leukemia, I send my most heartfelt condolences to his friends and family.

My condolence for him and his family. God bless them.

OMG!! That's terrible.
I send my condolences to his family and all those that supported him. Sad

R.I.P.

May he rest in peace.

That sucks. This is just like when Mike Kleinhenz (Kalinin of FMP) died. I hope for the best for his family.

His family is in my thoughts. Rest in peace, sir.

My condolences to his family.

True Story:
Today I was finally getting around to cleaning up the box where I had dumped all my convention stuff from this summer. Amongst the post cards, program guides, business cards, book marks, and other paper con relics, I glimpsed a flyer or something that was asking for potential donors to step up and help Emru Townsend. I didn't dwell too much on it at the time, but just now I sat down at my comp, dialed up ANN and look! Emru Townsend has died. What a sad coincidence.

My condolences to Mr. Townsend's family and friends.

My condolences also to his family. Such a sad, sad situation to have occurred.

My condolences to his family, but also to those who felt truly attached to his work and dedication.

I met back in 2006 a women who was doing all she could to get Japan and Quebec together. When I learned that she had died of Cancer, I rushed to her funeral, as she had shown great dedication in her work. I only met her while being a volunteer at the Japanese Pavilion at Expo Quebec 2006, but she left a lasting presence.

I don't recall reading something from Emru, but I looked at the links that were present and seeing all the things that he accomplished, he will certainly be missed by many.

I'm so sorry to hear of this - condolences to his family and friends.

That is truly sad. My condolences to his family. Also to his coworkers, friends, and fans.

I've known about Emru and his works for years and even corresponded on the Net and newsgroups a few times (and even won some goodies off his contests, like Osamu Tezuka's Buddha manga) and publicized his annual fps charity auctions.

This animation proponent will be missed.
