Bernie contracted a asthmatic condition caused by breathing the dust created when you count bundles of cash in a confined space I.E.a money vault…………

Death is a part of life, when your life impacts so many many people in a positive way one can only endure the pain and grief of loosing such a gifted person, when the pain and grief passes all their footprints will continue to illuminate the hearts and memories of all who observed their acts and loved them for who they were. Life is a huge stage where everyone participates death is also a part of life that no one can escape, it is also your report card of life. You either pass or failed Bernie played his life’s role to the max and left an permanent mark for all to see, enjoy and remember. Thanks Bernie for giving your all and sharing your time, talents and love with all the world. May your family find comfort in knowing you passed the test and that your footprints will be a shinning beacon to those you’ve left on this stage called life.
I can hardly believe the news of his death. He was way too young. I can’t help but wonder if he suffered from asthma or a related condition. I know that this can be a very bad combination with pneumonia.
My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family and friends.
God bless Bernie Mac. We have lost another good person.
Bernie Mac, We love you so much. You will be missed. You made me and my family laugh so much. Now you
will make heaven laugh and bring joy. God bless you Mac man.
that sucks Bernie Mac died, Issac Hayes just died too the day after Bernie Mac.
What a shock to hear of Bernie’s death…such a talented comedian & actor. His show was a situation comedy unlike any other, and it was a travesty that it was canceled. I had been unaware of his illness. He was an honorable man who will be truly missed…my sympathy goes out to his family.
It’s really hard to believe that Bernie is gone.The comedic world has truly lost one of their “kings”.I thank the lord for allowing Bernie to make us smile for 50 years. Mac Man, you will be missed!!
