He was one of my favorites, on stage and off. I laughed my butt off the first time I saw Kings of Comedy. His TV show was good too. It wasn't filled with stereotypical canned jokes and stunts.
He lived out this way, in a modest home with his family. His fame never went to his head, even though the local radio station used to hold daily "Bernie Mac" sightings. He was just a regular guy. Everyone that ever called in talked about how friendly he was when they saw him on the street.
Rest in peace, Mr. Mac.

Thank you for the belly laughs.
