Bernie Mac 's wife and daughter were with the late comedian in his last moments and were able to bid him a touching goodbye, his sister-in-law tells People magazine.  Mary Ann Grossett , the sister of Mac's wife Rhonda , spoke to the magazine about the final moments before the 50-year-old entertainer died. "He opened his eyes on his own and looked at Rhonda. She called his name, and he opened his eyes and nodded to her. She smiled at him and told him, 'Don't leave me … 'I'm waiting for you to come back.' He shrugged his shoulders, and she said that's when she knew he was tired. He signaled to her that his body was tired."  (link)
