Bernie Wrightson

His work continues to inspire me to this day - and likely always will. Extraordinary care put into every piece he did, and his talent was obvious. I'm sorry I never had the chance to meet him. Is there anything in the Austin area that commemorates him? I'd love to pay my respects. Regardless, thank you for sharing him with the world, and I'll include him in my prayers. May blessings fall upon all those who knew him and loved him.

Rest in Peace

Rest in peace my brother you will forever remain in our hearts

Bernie shaped our imaginations.Such a nice man.

Funny, charming and oh, so very talented, I will always remember Bernie fondly.

Just remember that it's only a temporary parting, Liz. Soulmates such as you and Bernie always find their way back to each other.

No one is every prepared for the death of a love one. Allow the wonderful memories of Bernie to bring joy and laughter to you. Rely on the love of family and friends, the wonderful power of prayer and God above to carry you through and assist you with your grief.

i Was an avid reader of House of Mystery, Creepy, Vampirella, Eerie, Swamp Thing, etc, and then eventually Stephen King's Creepshow. He depicted landscapes that were gothic, macabre, and haunting like the best of them. And for that, i thank him greatly.

RIP

He joined the Pantheon of The Masters of The Fantastic Art, alongside Frank Frazetta and Virgil Finlay. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Godspeed Bernie, and thank you for sharing a part of your life with us.

Liz, My deepest sympathy to you and your family, I share your sorrow. I am deeply sorry for your loss. May the loving words found in Isaiah 57:15 comfort you at this time.

Sorry for your loss. May you draw comfort from the scripture at Ecclesiastes 9 : 5 that show your loved ones a resting in peace.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

It can be so hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.

We'll miss you !

To the Wrightson Family,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dear Bernie. May you find comfort in the God of peace, who can give you the strength you need to endure.
With sympathy,
