I have a file called lastlogin_1 that contains a list of usernames. I would like to put together a quick loop script that will use a variable (the contents of lastlogin_1 file) and grep all directories and sub directories in the current directory (/in/the/current/directory) for each username in the lastlogin_1 file and remove all entries of the usernames that exist in files under these directories.
The files contain information as follows: (user access to various menus)
The lastlogin_1 file contains entries as follows:
jamesm> more lastlogin_1
aaron
adamb
alan
alanr
alanr
alecia
aleda
alexs
alfred
Should the username be removed it will leave a double comma ,, in the file which might cause problems with other users access so I would like to remove only the comma following the user being removed.
Can someone point me in the right direction of how to do this with the use of a script. I have tried a few things but failing at the first hurdle when trying to set the variable ie

outputs what is already in the lastlogin_1 file, as does
