Saying Goodbye to Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes…
Two legends passed on this weekend…
This is really sad and spooky at the same time.
Comedian Bernie Mac had been battling pneumonia this past week and rumors were swirling about his death. Though his reps were denying that rumor because our favorite funny man WAS still alive – he would go on to die on Saturday at age 50.
Bernie Mac suffered with sarcoidosis – his immune system was weak. Doctors tried to resuscitate him twice. First time worked, he was awake for about an hour. The second time he went into cardiac arrest. He died with his wife of 20 years – Rhonda – by his side.
Singer, Isaac Hayes was found dead in his home on Sunday – at age 65. The cause of death is still unknown at this time – it was also reported that Isaac may have been dead for at least two days prior to being found.
What a sad story to have to report on. I can remember the episodes of ‘The Bernie Mac Show’ when he had his regular card game with Isaac Hayes as one of his boys. I wonder if Isaac had a chance to see Bernie or was he too sick himself?
Bernie and Isaac will be sorely missed in our entertainment world. RouLaila’s prayers go out to both of their families. Bernie you definitely made me laugh, Isaac you absolutely made me swoon. Say hello to Cora Balcom for me… R.I.P.
