Don Cornelius, the producer and television host who created the dance show “Soul Train,” was found shot dead in his Los Angeles home early Wednesday morning in what appears to be a suicide, the Los Angeles Police Department and the county coroner’s office said. He was 75 years old.

Very sad end. RIP Don Cornelius.

Rest in peace Mr. Cornelius.

One of my earliest memories is seeing a little "Soul Train". It would be on my local station on Sundays usually right after Abbott and Costello.

Soul Train was regular viewing at my house. Being a cartoon nut, I loved the opening with the psychadelic animated train.

Godspeed, Don.

Sad news. Sometimes people decide to leave on their own terms. The man was too cool. Love, peace and soul, Don.
