Bernie Mac will be missed I enjoyed watching him on T.V. I remember when the kings of comedy came to the big screen I couldn't wait to go see it because I knew that Bernie was going to have me laughing so now I know that he will have god laughing. I just want to send my heart felt condolences out to his family. Bernie Mac were truly the king of comedy. May his soul rest in peace!!!

Bernie you will truly be missed. You have made all of us laugh, cry. You will be greatly missed by the world. My prayers go out for the family. Don't be sad because Bernie gone be happy that he's gone on to touch other lives in heaven like he has touch ours. Be strong. With every passing day the pass will become less. Just be greatful for the times that you all had together. I would give anything to of had my mother for a long period of time but she was taken away from me when I was age 11. So be happy for every moment that you all did have together.

Though he was given to us to make us laugh & cry at the same time. He has now been called home to present that special gift to the creator. He will be deeply missed and forever be in the hearts of Chicagoans and others throughout the world. I will forever miss that bright smile and that famous saying, ''I say what people are scared to say". My heart and prays are with the family.

I am so sorry for the lost of this father, husband, brother, uncle, and friend. I lost my father in January of this year by the same horrible disease. He was 49 years old. He too was in the hospital and was getting better. So better in fact, that he was released from the hospital and died a few short days later. God Bless you Mr. Mac. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I read this breaking news this morning, and thought how sad it was to have a comedian with that classic intelligent wit and sarcasmhad passed. I remember the first time i had seen one of his routines, and then flashed back to the Bernie Mac show.. and how i would be laughing so hard, i'd be crying.. because i could relate as a parent. he gave us all something to laugh with and at, and we loved him for it.

What a loss. God knows best. Rest in peace my brother. I used to tape the Bernis Mac show every day because I did not make it home on time to watch it. I will not stop doing it because his show always put a smile on my face when I was tired and stressed from my busy day.

I could not believe it when I saw on the BBC news that you had passed away. I am deeply saddened and shocked by your early passing. To me, you Bernie was hilarious. From your tv show to the movies you starred in. You made millions laugh with your jokes and witty comments, bringing smiles upon their faces instantly. I will always remember you for the great person you were, my thoughts are with the loved ones you left behind and rest in peace, god bless xxxxxxxxx

Bernie, I loved you from the first time I saw you on the Bernie Mac show. You made me laugh, cry and think, and all while you were battling your illness. When the lights went off who knows but the love of your life, Rhonda, what pain you were in with your battles. Well, brother man, your battle is done. We love you and we thank you for everything! And we pray for you and your family. Dear God, please take good care of Your special child here. You know his battles and all he's tried to do to keep the world happy. And he definitely did. Bless him and keep him in Your loving arms. Amen. God bless you Bernard J. McCullough. We Love You Dearly! And we will miss you way too much!

Funnily enough I didn’t know Bernie from Oceans 11 etc, but I used to watch him early morning on Channel 4 in the UK. When I subsequently travelled to US quite frequently, I slowly found myself seeking him out on US TV, almost subconsciously. Inevitably I succumbed to the wit and warmth of Bernie, and as such I wanted to say thank you and goodnight. You will be sorely missed.

One of the greatest comedians in this lifetime has passed away. My heart goes out to Bernie Mac's family. In terms of stand up, movies and even "The Bernie Mac Show", the man was definitely ahead of his time!! 'Til the day we meet again, in my heart is where I'll keep you, friend. George Clooney is right: The world just became a little less funny. RIP Bernie Mac - 1957-2008.

I felt like a close friend or relative had passed when I heard the news... you see, Bernie Mac (Bernard Jeffrey McCullough) and I share the same birth date (10/5) and the same last name. My husband is a McCullough and his family is mostly from Texas, but he may have had some distant relatives who moved to Chicago. I've always enjoyed Bernie's stand-up and his show. He will be truly missed here on earth, but now it's heaven's turn to have a good laugh!
