Bernie Mac died at age 50 from complications to pneumonia last Saturday. He was admitted a week earlier to hospital and was expected to recover. Instead, friends, family and the co-stars that worked alongside him remember Mac, one of The Original Kings of Comedy.
“The world just got a little less funny. He will be dearly missed,” said George Clooney.
Another Ocean’s co-star Brad Pitt said, “I lament the loss of a ferociously funny and hard-core family man. My thoughts are with (his wife) Rhonda and their family. Bernie Mac, you are already missed.”

Chris Rock extolled Mac as “one of the best and funniest comedians to ever live, but that was the second-best thing he did. Bernie was one of the greatest friends a person could have.”
