Sad news!!
I was acquainted with George, both in person and online (we exchanged emails, and did some Instant Messenging), and he was a generous and friendly guy.
Not to mention a talented author, obviously.
RIP, George. We'll miss ya...

Today's Washington Post contains an obit for George Chesbro, creator of
Mongo the Magnificent, ex-circus dwarf turned PI. I only read the first
few, a long time ago. But it's sort of a testament to their quality
that I read more than one since, at the time, I had no real interest in
crossgenre PI novels, and these are filled with the occult:
