Like many of us, I just don't know what to say. Many things in life are not fair and tragedy seems to rear its ugly head a little more often nowadays. As I said to my fellow Joblo family when this news came out, I f*cking LOVED Chadwick Boseman! His BLACK PANTHER was my son's favorite Avenger. Over the past decade, the man created a legacy through film that would take many others several lifetimes. He also just seemed like a damn good dude. I can't write any more. Here are some Twitter reactions from those who knew Mr. Boseman:

Our hearts are broken and our thoughts are with Chadwick Boseman’s family. Your legacy will live on forever. Rest In Peace. pic.twitter.com/DyibBLoBxz
