Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes

Yes, in my last blog post I joked about my own death, we all thought that was really funny, now didn't we, but now this is real.

Bernie Mac

1957-10-05 - 2008-08-09

Bernard McCullough, from The Bernie Mac Show, Don't Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood, The Original Kings Of Comedy and much more, died of sarcoidosis, an inflammatory lung disease that produces tiny lumps of cells in the body's organs. He left behind a wife, daughter and grandchild. At the time of his death, Bernie was working on the movie Soul Man with Isaac Hayes.

Isaac Hayes

1942-08-20 - 2008-08-10

One day after Bernie died, Isaac Hayes died. He was an honorary king of an area in Ghana and the voice of Chef in South Park, though he was more famous for his music. At the time of his death he was preparing a new album. His cause of death is not entirely determined, though it is believed it was related to the stroke he had in 2006.
