Bernie Mac Dead (1957-2008)



Just last week I blogged about Bernie Mac being alive and well after being hospitalized due to pneumonia. I was aghast with today's news saying that he just died! Wow we truly have no idea when our time comes now do we?

Reportedly, he suffered complications due to a previous illness, sarcoidosis that inflamed his organs and reduced his immune system. I heard in some circles that some believe he was HIV+. Hard to swallow as he only did have 1 wife in the last 30 years. But who knows right?

Nevertheless, I hope he rests in peace. God knows he provided so many people with enough laughs to make life a lot more bearable. Many celebrities have paid their respects, but his burial has not been disclosed for privacy reasons, but will take place on August 15.
