I'm IN SHOCK too! I just woke up and my mother told me this. I knew about him in the hospital but I thought he was going to be released soon and then he died. He had complications from pneumonia. I was in Chicago this past week and that is all we heard was that he was getting better and now he died? Sad. Let's pray for him!

He was so young! I am praying for his spirit and his family. Only 50! I thought he was going to recover from his sickness. I was in Chicago this week and the entire time everyday there were updates that he was in *stable condition* and now this =(. God had a plan for him. I am praying his spirit is at peace.
