In some unfortunate news, the legendary Don Cornelius was found dead in his Sherman Oaks, Ca home this morning. He was 75 years old and dealing with a recent divorce. Authorities do not suspect foul play. TMZ reported that in 2009 Mr. Cornelius told the judge in his divorce case that he needed to hurry up and finalize the divorce before he died. Did Mr. Cornelius suspect or know something the general public didn't? The details of the divorce have not been disclosed. In the end it's a very sad turn of events. He was the host and the creator of something that has been and will always be such a strong part of black culture and now american culture. Although the Soul Train has made it's final stop the memories will reverberate forever. Thank you Mr. Don Cornelius. may your Soooouuuulll be at peace.
