Family at times is worse than your worst enemy. Especially if money is involved

[@ForeverLuckyLika]

They are! You told no lies!

[@AvecPoesie]

I am still healing mentally and emotionally after what my siblings and other relatives did to me as my beloved Mother was Dying. Family can be disturbingly TOXIC.

[@LMLification]

You told no lies. That is why it is better to be alone. No use in having family if they are just going to mistreat you anyway.

[@MothGirl007]

Absolutely!

[@truthseeker5941]

@zzizahacallar I love when people tell the truth. People are always online talking about how great it is to have children and blood is thicker than water and blah, blah, blah. Yes, that might be true for some lucky people, but sometimes they will be "your worst enemy" and then they claim they love/loved you. They will even dog you if your broke, but don't have no money they can get!!!

[@gabriellehollis9081]

The most despicable part of this whole travesty is not telling the daughter and family he was on his death bed so they could say goodbye.

[@CoachCiCi]

I wonder why the "real" daughter wasn't in contact with her dad tho 🤔

[@ThePixieBarrow-zz4cq]

​@@CoachCiCibecause Mr. Amos was furious that she started an unauthorized GoFundMe after she accused KC of elder abuse, begging for money on the internet for "healthcare expenses and treatment" and then her father demanded it be taken down immediately and accused SHANNON of elder abuse. They weren't on speaking terms at the time of his passing. The whole situation is really sad and unfortunate, however, I don't believe that KC was abusing his father, and aside from the congestive heart failure he was physically and mentally sound. Shannon needs to stop making this all about her, but there's really no mystery here, just sadness.

His son kept trying to push his dad to be part of a low budget film of ours claiming he was his manager..they where hiding out in a small town called West Cliff in Colorado.. after a while they ditched the town and were on the run..all this about 2 years ago..his son was definitely up to something..I cheated with Amoses son a couple of times..the conversations always felt awkward..

[@jcuff715]

The daughter tried to get custodial custody for her father due to her concerns regarding her brother's behavior. This needs to be investigated.

[@thespiritualkinect941]

She sure did she even went public with it.

[@skepchica]

But Mr. Amos didn't want any of this talked about in public. He actually requested the announcement of his death to be later because he didn't want the "media circus" (his words) she was going to bring to his passing. If I were to guess, he probably had an illness that he either refused treatment or wanted to stop treatment for. This is an incredibly difficult request on anyone's family. I understand his daughter doing what she could to keep her father here, but it ended up putting his health in the media, and that was embarrassing to him and brought attention he didn't want. I feel bad for her, but we have to respect other people's choices, even if they're not ours.

Something in the buttermilk ain't clean! This ain't 33 years ago; why is it that the "daughter" didn't have to present an i.d., driver's license, and/or birth certificate to prove that she was Shannon? How was K. C. the informant, but HE didn't handle claiming his body and his final wishes of a cremation (which he more than likely did not want)? WHEN did Shannon find out that some chick impersonated her? I hope that these questions begin getting answered before the end of the year.

If a person dies in a hospital being treated for a condition an autopsy is not required but elective. Especially if the death is not suspicious.

John was an amazing talent he wasn't what we thought.If he was born during more modren times he would have been the best.

Mr. Amos was one of my favorite tv dads growing up. ❤

This is horrible. His son has had some serious suspicions of elder abuse. I don't like the sound of any of this.

[@StephaniRoberts]

I had such a crush on John Amos…”James.” This is so sad. He was Loved by so many and to think he was alone and some creepy stuff happened with his family. Despicable. 😢😭

[@mochap19]

I kept saying that the son has A LOT to do with this. I seen a video that he was healthy and coherent.

Please everyone make sure you plan for your old age whether you have money or not make sure some point in your life before you’re too old you have put money aside for yourself otherwise vultures will eat you alive

That happened in my family because the person wanted to play “pass the power-of-attorney around”. So that person died alone and remained in the morgue for over 5 months, not buried. Never put your family member in Virginia nursing homes, EVER! They are criminals! Very sad.

You know Florida is rolling her eyes at his son.

[@paolamejia9826]

[@bethuelmwangi3139]
