Did not realize this before..normally The MLB has Jackie Robinson day on April 15..but due to COVID it was Yesterday..Chad played Jackie in the movie 42. So fitting it was yesterday.
Anyway, still shocked by this one..had a night to think about it..it’s just as bad as the Kobe and his daughter passing, you didn’t see it coming, and way to young.

If someone told me this was the year the of the apocalypse, I might not think of them as so crazy right now.

RIP

RIP, could not have asked for a better Black Panther.

I hope they have Shuri take up the mantle rather than recasting the role. Boseman will forever be King T’Challa.

It was also Jack Kirby's birthday, who co-created Black Panther. A fitting day indeed.

A really big loss and really powerful how Boseman maneged to keep his career going despite his condition. He definitely inspired a lot of people with Black Panther and his others characters.

There is a video on youtube where he was talking about two kids with terminal cancer trying to hang on to see Black Panther before it came out. It is especially sad now knowing that he had cancer at this time.

Devastating. And colon cancer is just so painful and devastating. Never knew he was fighting this for four years. So very sad.

Wow. He was actually older than I thought but still too young to pass in such a painful way. I hope he is resting peacefully now. He will be missed.

So sad I'm surprised he was able to keep his battle under wraps for so long in this day and age.
