Well, 2020 just keeps on taking. Yesterday the following announcement was made on Joe Sinnott's personal Facebook page. I'll run it here in its entirety:
Godspeed, Joltin' Joe!
It with great sorrow that we must announce the passing of Joltin’ Joe Sinnott on June 25th at 8:40am at the age of 93. He went peacefully with the knowledge that his family, friends, and fans adored him. He enjoyed life and was drawing up until the end. He always loved hearing from all of you and having your comments read to him. Each and every one of you were special to him.
The Sinnott family requests their privacy and understanding during this difficult time. Please send condolences to:

Thank you again for being such loyal and dedicated fans and friends to Joe. He considered all fans friends, and seeing you at cons and reading your messages was what kept him young at heart.
RIP Joe Sinnott

By all accounts, Mr. Sinnott lived a full life, beloved by most everyone he knew. He left a wonderful legacy as a human and as an artist. A man couldn't really ask for more than that, could he? I know his artistry charmed and amazed many of us for decades. Let's just sit back and enjoy some samples of that talent (from the Groovy Age, of course) in his memory...
