Is there an easy/elegant solution to this where I'm not adding multiple IF(ISBLANK() conditions to my formula?

Excel Formula:
=D2&", "&E2&", "&F2

This works great if there's values in D, E, F, but when there's not, I get results like:

, tiger

How can I leave out the comma space if D2 or E2 are blank?

Thanks!

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
How about
Excel Formula:
=textjoin(", ",,D2:F2)
