That's crazy he died in August and they just letting us know now

[@duchess56me-tf7fx]

August?!

[@sheranda77]

It is strange, waiting over a month, to announce a public figure death.

[@Dcfinest79]

Probably had some family issues going on. Maybe wanted to get everything together, any final plans to be carried out before.

[@marcaskew6199]

@@sheranda77 Those children seem like they was worried more about his money that's what it sounds like

[@glxmam-beker]

"I feel like break dancing"😂 Rest in Peace ❤

[@essencefrazier2398]

"James did you get the job?". No matter what anybody says Goodtimes did throw in some subtle messages but you had to be sharp and read between the lines. And had they become wealthy suburban folks , the show would have been canceled. Sleep In Heavenly Peace, Hone Sweet Home, Free At Last.

[@Justiceisdivine]

See you later James

[@AmosEzema]

Soo long name sake
