    I am sure some of us thought it could never happen

    Many of us saw him both arrive and then evolve, first as an indomitable world karate champion, then as movie actor and TV actor, but always a man of faith who had very strong morals and integrity.

    He actually did become a legend in his own time and, again for many of us, a real-world hero.

    Our hero, Chuck Norris died in a hospital in Hawaii yesterday, at age 86. Cause of death not yet released.

    RIP Chuck. We will miss you.


    Martial arts phenom and Hollywood action star Chuck Norris — known for Walker, Texas Ranger, among other macho roles — died on Thursday at the age of 86, in what his family described as a "sudden passing."

    There must be some Chuck Norris memes of him beating death.
    I always heard he thought those were funny...

          Chuck was bitten by a King Cobra snake and after five agonizing days the snake finally died.

            He was one of my brother's icons as a kid. I preferred Bruce Lee, but I truly appreciated the evolution Norris moved through as he aged. He was a national treasure.
