Life is ironic, so ironic. Just days after my book comes out “How To Get Fit Fast After Fifty”, my only brother dies of a heart attack due to high blood pressure and poor health at the age of 57. I just couldn’t get to him on time. What bitter irony.
To clarify the last name confusion, for reasons that I need not go into here, I changed my name from Charles Johnson to Charles Prosper in 1979.
My brother was an accomplished jazz musician in New Orleans, Louisiana who played the drums like nobody’s business. He also was a Hollywood actor who managed to get various small parts in big-ticket movies. Here I remember him as he appeared in the movie “Monster Ball” with Halle Berry in 2002. I will miss you, Bern.
