R.I.P Bernie Mac

Comedian and Chicago native Bernie Mac died early Saturday morning from complications due to pneumonia. Mac, 50, had been hospitalized for about a week at Northwestern Hospital, according to his spokeswoman. A few years ago, Mac disclosed that he suffered from sarcoidosis, a rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in tissue, most often in the lungs.

R.I.P big man. We’ll miss you.
