R.I.P. Bernie Mac
August 9, 2008 / Posted by: Michael K
Bernie Mac passed away this morning at the young age of 50. I really don’t know what to say. I’m pretty shocked. I knew he was in the hospital with pneumonia, but his rep said he was in stable condition and said he would be released in a few days. Sadness.
His rep issued this statement: “[He] passed away this morning from complications due to pneumonia in a Chicago area hospital. No other details are available at this time. We ask that his family’s privacy continues to be respected.”
He is survived by his wife and daughter.
He was seriously an amazing comedian and performer. I have nothing funny to say.
Rest in peace, Bernie Mac….
