So sad, he was only 50. Pneumonia is nothing to mess around with!

    50 is just way too young. I thought he was pretty funny. I still go back to being only 50. That is only 13 years away for me. I could not imagine being dead at 50.

    A woman I worked with died on her way home from work Monday night. Single car accident, flipped her car and hit a tree. She was 55. There was another death that I heard about this week. So Bernie makes 3. Hopefully I am all done for a while.

    That's really sad. My brother had Pneumonia last November from complications of a prescription drug reaction. It was so scary. It can literally be okay one minute and the next minute can take a turn.

    I'm sorry for his family and friends. 50 is way too young. RIP.
  • No shit, that is so sad. His show got a little old after a while, but I loved him in the movies he was in. Damn.

    RIP

    Bernie was a great stand up. Never been a fan of his acting but he always made me laugh. 50 is WAY too young.

    RIP
