The loss of John Amos has brought to light a schism among the family, and it sounds quite chaotic.
The family of the late actor is now accusing John’s son, Kelly Christopher Amos, often known as K.C., of isolating the “Good Times” star from his loved ones before to his loss.
Relatives of John Amos have issued a statement in which they claim, “Over the course of the past year, John Amos was isolated from his family and close friends by Kelly “KC” Amos, Eugene Brummet, and Belinda Foster.”
The continuation of the family… “Despite our repeated attempts to maintain contact, KC prevented access to him, controlled and monitored his calls and severed ties with John’s daughter Shannon Amos, his brother Leslie “Syl” Franklin, his grandchildren Quiera Colston and Jhazz Williams, his business manager Paul Baldessare, his god-daughter Amy Goudy, his niece Sherri Korsun, his former accountant and other close family members, friends, and loved ones.”
This particular set of family members issued the statement, in which they said that “KC portrayed an image of a close father-son relationship on social media, but the reality was much more complex.”
According to John’s family, he suffered from dementia, and they believe that KC often provided John with verbal suggestions to develop a narrative on social media that was not indicative of the facts. Upon receiving photographs from concerned neighbors and a medical expert, we were filled with a profound sense of apprehension that our father could have been mistreated and alone during his dying days.
Despite the fact that John passed away in August, the family claims that they did not learn of his passing until this week, and that they only learned about it via the media outlets.
KC is listed as the person who notified the county of his father’s loss, according to the loss certificate that was acquired by TMZ. The document also states that John was cremated nine days after he passed away. It is also stated in the agreement that KC has John’s ashes.
The family of John is inquiring as to why they were not informed of his passing by the authorities, the coroner, or medical personnel, and they are also accusing KC of failing to tell them.
The family continues by saying, “We believe there are important questions that need answers, especially considering that we believe KC most likely made the decision to have John Amos cremated without the family’s knowledge.” We have a strong suspicion that these acts were carried out with the intention of modifying possible wills and obtaining life insurance or other advantages. Furthermore, the fact that KC has been arrested in the past, in addition to his challenges with addiction and mental health concerns, makes this situation much more troubling.
According to John’s family, they are “saddened and outraged” despite the fact that they “refuse to rule out the possibility of foul play.”
KC and Belinda have been contacted, but we have not received a response as of yet.
