Bernie Mac Dies: MSNBC Reporting

Last week Sandra Rose reported that Bernie Mac was in very critical condition, but Mac's publicist said otherwise. Well, MSNBC just put up a headline that comedian Bernie Mac has died. He was only 50 years old.

Folks stop waiting around to find some peace in your life. Tomorrow or even the next hour isn't promised to us.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I'm never online this time of day on a Saturday. I am on here just to confirm this story. I am SO, SO sad.
RIP Bernie Mac. May Allah bless his family.

R.I.P Bernie Mac you will be missed.

I'm almost in tears as I type this. Bernie Mac was family. He was a local guy who went big, but never forgot his hometown. He never moved away from Chicago. I admit it - what I loved most about Bernie is that he married his high school sweetheart, and when he got big, he stayed with her. He was a Black man who took care of his family, and secondarily made us laugh.

Damn, he was too young. Too young.

I agree La Bell Femme. Take care of your bodies the best you know how. It helps.

How sad. Way too young to be gone from here.

Bernie will be sorely missed. What a shock and a reminder that tomorrow is never promised. Thank the Universe that this man shared his comedic gift with us.

my heart is truly heavy as I type this...what a giant both as a comedian, and an actor. But what is most impressive is committment to his family, ( WIFE OF 30 YRS, and the father of one daughter JeNiece, and his grandaughter) and how he never let fame nor fortune CHANGE him nor his comedy....his life ended tooo soon...so much talent ..now laid to rest...A TRUE KING OF COMEDY...we will miss you Bernie Mac
