Isaac Hayes entertained my generation with his rich music, and I will miss him (I am not really a SP fan).  But Bernie Mac really hit close to home.  He was my age!  And reminded me all too clearly that my life is not a guarantee.  I look forward to each day now with a little more appreciation and enjoyment.  I will miss them both.  They did make my life more enjoyable, and in the end, that is the best epitath a man can ask for.

I read that Hayes' family came home and he was on the floor and the treadmill was still running.  Sad.

Definitely both gone way too young. 

I have some beef with Isaac Hayes, but that doesn't make his passing any less tragic.

I'm having trouble responding, my comments won't post.  Just in case, it does,

They will be fondly remember.  It is funny how you begin to compare once you hear someone close to your age passes, isn't it?! Mac was close to my hubby's age, a few month's later. 

Tex, you're talking about the SP thing with Isaac? I heard about that. I'm not a fan of SP myself so didn't see it. But I guess all that is not relevant now as you said.

 Yes, I too loved Bernie's comic!
