Bernie Mac FUNERAL

Posted on August 11th, 2008 in Bernie Mac by lalate

Bernie Mac FUNERAL


FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS - LALATE has the funeral arrangements for Bernie Mac that you can attend.The funeral will be Saturday, August 16th. The location of the Bernie Mac Funeral is the House of Hope church at 752 E. 114th St.. The venue holds 10,000 people.

Some of the details of how Bernie died are now coming out - but honestly, they are too sad to post. Here are what some celebrities are saying about Bernie Mac • Samuel L. Jackson “It goes without saying that Bernie was one of the preeminent comedians of our generation. He was also an attentive husband, a great father and loving grandfather. I feel blessed to have shared years of friendship with Bernie Mac, and I’m honored to have finally co-starred with him in what I consider to be his finest cinematic acting achievement. My sincere prayer is that his family will be comforted by the warmth of love from all of us who knew and respected this man.”

• George Clooney: “The world just got a little less funny. He will be missed dearly.”

• Brad Pitt: “I lament the loss of a ferociously funny and hardcore family man. My thoughts are with Rhonda and their family. Bernie Mac, you are already missed.”

• Chris Rock: “Bernie Mac was 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. Losing him is like losing 12 people because he absolutely filled up any room he was in. I’m gonna miss the Mac Man.”

• Cedric the Entertainer: “It’s hard to put into words just how I feel and what a painful loss this is. Bernie was a brother, a friend and one of the comic masters of our time. Sharing the marquee with him during the phenomenon of the Kings of Comedy tour bonded us like family, and created a unique moment in comic history marking some of the most meaningful, memorable and fun times of our lives. His comedic approach was his own brand and will definitely stand the test of time. The level of his talent always inspired me and other comedians to ‘bring their A-game.’ I promise you that you never wanted to be the guy who had to follow Bernie’s set! As a husband and father, he was THE MAN and my thoughts and prayers are with his family. He will truly be missed, but so well remembered.”

And the great Carl Reiner:

• Carl Reiner: “It’s a tremendous loss because of his age and the fact that he was such a vital, original human being. When I use the word ‘original’ I really mean it. He was like no other person I knew. He lived his life to the fullest, even when we were on the set of Ocean’s. He had his own little apartment and he cooked and invited people to lunch every day and he had food that was for everybody. He made very exotic things. His conversations were always different than any conversations I had with anyone else. They were very family-oriented; he talked about his wife and children with such love and it’s very hard to believe that he’s not with us anymore.”

LALATE will have complete coverage of the Bernie Mac Funeral for you.

    I can remember growing up watching Bernie Mac in so many movies and just being in astonishment of how funny and talented this man was. He left such an impact on people whether it was someone who knew him personally or someone who felt they knew him (as myself). My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family!

    When I discovered Bernie Mac had died that Saturday morning, I was crushed, and have been since. Bernie Mac was a wonderful comedian, father, and husband. My favorite segment of his was, “Milk and Cookiieess.” I’ll miss you Bernie, no one will ever take your place.

    Rest In Peace

    I am sending my condolences to the family of the late Bernie Mac. When I found out about the tragic, heartbreaking news, I felt as if he was a member of my family. For which, he was because I grew up listening to his funny antics, his movies, and television shows that he appeared. I am going to miss the master at work, he was truly one of the best comedians that I have ever encountered, and not only was he a comedian, he was a man who loved his family, and for that I have much respect for that. I will miss his gorgeous smile and most of all the way he dressed, he was definately a sharp dresser. He will go down in history as being one of the men among all men. May God bless the Mac family, his friends, and most of all the fans that loved him because we, too, loved him dearly.

    I would just like to say my heart goes out to Mr. Mac’s family. I am a true fan and I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Bernie Mac in person behind stage in 1995 in Jackson Mississippi. I was able to speak with him, shake his hand and congratulate him on his sucess. I thank the Lord for allowing me to now look back at the pictures we took together. May God Bless Mr. Mac’s family.

  13. Michele Davis said,

    on August 12th, 2008 at 3:24 pm

    This is such a great loss. Bernie Mac was as real as they come and his humor was just that “REAL”. I don’t know how his walk with God was but I pray he finds a home in heaven. Just because he used the lanuage he did, doesn’t mean he didn’t have a relationship with God. My prayers are with his family in their time of need. We (the public) feel it too.

    I miss the mac man already. I did not know you personally but I did know about you as far as your career. When I got the news I had to sit down and take it in because the pain I feel right now is breathtaking. I will love you always and I will surely miss you on the television. I am your #1 and I have all of your movies, sitcoms, and comic acts on DVD. I have mourned the lost of you by laughing at your movies, etc. I love you and I know that you will surely be remembered by everyone who knew you. Rest in Peace, I will see you on the other side, oh yeah, have a joke ready for me too.

    To Bernie Mac : I really am hurt that you have left us - so soon! I wish more than anything I had known you were so sick–because I would have prayed for you and you would’ve gotten better. Fo’ real! I really hate you are gone from us. My heart hopes you are in heaven with Jesus! It is my prayer that you make peace with all those who have hurt you and took from you. God bless your soul. There has never been another entertainment who died that made my heart hurt as much. Rest in peace. You really left too soon, Bernie.

    Bernie you brought laughter and humor into our lives for so long and you were truly a king of comedy. You were booked at some of the best night clubs around the country and aboard and raise the roof off nightly with you humor. Now your humor have reached the heavens and you have been called to perform the biggest gig ever that comes around once in a lifetime. You are headlining alongside other great performers before you ohh!!!.what a performance that is going to be.

    Goodnite and R.I.P Mr. Mac and may God bless you and keep in His care.

    To Ms. Rhonda and Je’Niece McCullough -

    My sincere condolences to you two — my heart and my prayers go out to you during this very difficult time. Just hearing and reading about Mr. Mac’s and your your last days are so heartfelt. I apologize for intruding in on your last few hours/days with one of the top comedians in the world especially when you want to savor every last link that you had to Bernie Mac the man, husband father, and grandfather. I appreciate it a lot.Having to share your very private moments with all of us; please know that we (the public) all appreciate it. Last days with famiily should always be personal, but Mr. Mac was such a Comic Relief for so many of us. When I heard on the news that he was in the hospital, I too expected him to bounce right back on a set somewhere like Mr. Kutcher said he had done once before. But we’ll never know how each and every time he had an episode how much stress and strain that had paced on his human heart. I say this because I believe things happen for a reason. I believe God just called him home.

    Unfortunately, because we never know when God is going to call us home, it usually takes us by surprise when it happens, but understand that when the Lord calls — We all have to go — no matter who we are or where we are at. This time was already predestined and foreordained by God. so with that, I am so sorry for your loss Ms. McCoullough. But Mr. Mac is in a better and more peaceful place at last!

    Reading about Mr. Mac’s last trying ordeal was so very hard and somewhat personal, but I know and hope you enjoyed your life with Mr. Mac — he was like a King to all of us comedy-wise. I was even sorrier to hear about his bout with pneumonia and sarcoidosis, but know that he is in a better place now and he will be able to enjoy the retirement he talked so much about taking.

    I really loved this man especially as a King of Comedy. This was truly his calling. I loved Mr. Mac for so much that he gave to people everywhere!

    Although, I can’t remember exactly what I was doing at the time I heard the news, but the news was hard to hear. I was literally floored and felt the deepest loss — Bernie Mac? Did they just say Bernie Mac had died, I couldn’t believe some one so close to me in age had died so suddenly. If I had known Mr. Mac was sick I would have said sent a few prayers his way.

    I wasn’t always appreciative of the profanity in his act, but I always knew that it was part of the act. I don’t know where his heart was spiritually, but I hope that he will be blessed for all the joy, compassion, and inspiration he shared with us over the years. He had an awesome career as a comedian.

    One never know when we will get that call from the Lord up in Heaven, but when we do, we have to go. Life on earth will go on, but when our Lord calls us, we go. So as you remember with saddness your last few hours know there was an even greater plan and audition for Mr. Mac. His greatest audition yet in Heaven; but entertaining the King’s Court will be an honor for Mr. Mac. He was a good soldier for the Lord right down here on earth and it is my belief that God will surely bless him for all of his kidness, compassion shown to us here.

    So know this Ms. Rhonda and Je’Neice, Mr. Mac touched so many, many people’s lives here on earth! Comedy just seemed to be his particular niche in life and he used it to entertain so many of us that at times — it won’t be the same now that he’s gone.

    Mr. Mac you were an inspiration — and YOU brought so much laughter into our lives; you will be missed. I’ll miss him also. The Mac was a part of my family because he was a REAL COMEDIAN and his antics allowed me to get through life during some very difficult times of my own.

    I understand that Mr. Mac was a great comedian, an even greater husband, father and grandfather. I didn’t know his faith but I know that God has a place for him in His Army in Heaven and I will hopefully hear the laughter when I get there as I did down here on earth.

    Mr. Mac, although I did not know you personally I did know about you as far as your career goes. When I heard the news, I admit that I too had to sit down take it in because the pain I felt was like you were a member of my family.

    I will love you always and will keep your family in my prayers. I will surely miss you on television and at the movies for many years to come. I am your #1 fan and will continue to keep your Spirit alive by watching all of your movies, sitcoms, and comic acts on DVD. I mourn the loss of you by laughing at all that you did. You will be remembered by all who knew you and will ever hear of you. I love you Mac man!

    Rest in Peace, until I see you on the other side, I know the Lord and his son will enjoy you as much as I (we) did down here. And the next time I hear the Thunder in the air, and see the Lightening across the sky, I’m going to believe that it was you entertaining the Lord’s Court — if that’s okay with you two, smile.

    To the Mac family:I am truly sorry for your loss and I know Bernie is in a better place now. He was truly a funny man and I will really miss him a lot.

    Mr. Mac,

    You gave alot of young performers a person to look up to and admire. Your work as a comedian and actor will always be remembered. As many people have said, the earth got a little less funny today, and heaven is filled with laughter. God Bless you Mr. Mac and may he always watch out for the family you left behind. Thanks for the years of laughter and entertainment. The Ocean’s family won’t be the same without you!
    God Bless and Lots of Luv!

    Rhonda the Metal Hill crew shares the loss of Bernie with you. He was definitely a great guy. And had a heart the size of Chicago. Not to mention funny as hell. Gonna miss him telling people he was gonna “buss yo head straight to the whitemeat”! He was definitely a KING of Comedy.

    Whenever the world of entertainment loses someone, it is heartbreaking. Bernie Mac was the type of comedian who made an impact on many lives. He touched so many people in different ways. Even though I did not know him personally, Bernie Mac was a great comedian. He will be missed, but know that God makes no mistakes, and everyone, at some point and time, will have to make the same journey that Bernie Mac did. My prayers go out to his family and those who loved him.

    As we all know, you are and will always be “THE MAC” of all “MAC’S”.
    Me personally,,,
    knowing you as a Comedian/Actor, you surely mentored us young and older young men to raise up and be accountable for who we are (as a Black Man 1st) and to be responsible for our actions. You mean alot to me and even through hard times I found time to laugh with you and understand that everything will work its own way out. Thanks for just being you. You are definitly a TREND-SETTA.
    May God carry you through….

    R.I.P Bernie Mac, you deserve everything that God put in your path. Lets be honest,you weren’t the most good looking comedian in the world, but you sure were the most respectful and truthful one. To all of your love ones, I am truely sorry, for all of the moments that you are going through right now, but you know that The Mac, will never leave your hearts. Wish I could have met you or at least seeing you live, Thank You for all of your hard work and thrive for comedy. You will remain as an urban legend, no man will ever come close to The Mac. Jokes are always being told, Comedy is something a few understand and know, “Funny” God takes the one man that did know Comedy. Too many words to describe The Mac, and now no time. Rest In Peace Bernie, we are all heading your way. Just save me a seat next to you. Damn =(
