    *September 3, 2020* Oh Chadwick..... You are truly missed.... 💔 All of these videos I've seen of him are popping up in my suggestions and I just CAN'T..... It's so wild that he's gone. Rewatching all of these interviews and realizing he was sick then hurts like hell. He handled his illness privately, and so gracefully. Never once complaining or hinting of his suffering. I will forever be shaken up by the strength of this man.

    Sitting and listening to Chadwick reading or speaking this narrative shows that he is truly a great actor. It brings me to tears knowing that he is not here to continue this humongous talent. What a gift he was to all of us and he slipped away without us knowing just how really valuable he was and is to our culture. I have spent hours devouring every video and interview he did and in some I can see the pain and discomfort he suffered. Having watched my own son suffer a terminal illness for years I learned the body language because he too never complained and fought through his illness with no complaints, courage and dignity. The talent, courage and dignity of Chadwick Boseman is to be forever admired. Rest in heavenly power Mr. Boseman.

    There is so much misunderstanding on these communication vents, I am not here to be nasty as this is a very sad affair, I came in love to those who are willing to understand where I am coming from. I am perplexed why people have resulted to preempt nastiness on social media.I take this as a medium for sharing in an informative and respective manner, however some people use it as a battle ground. I was touched by the passing of this wonderful person who was loaned to humanity as we all are; we all have different expressions in communiction; I do not see what I said wrong, I have no apology for this, because I am convinced that CB would have understood fully, I am convinced that the Good Lord who operates the reigns of our hearts is pleased, as all what I do is unto Him. Amen. I owe nothing except love as I am commanded. God bless you whoever you are and I pray that you find peace in all your endeavours. Shalom.

    Such passion for the world to know the truth. He truly was a blessing to this world. And just think God purposes were fulfilled in him in just forty three years God truly anointed him for such a time as this. Can you imagine what else he could have done if he had lived longer. His voice alone commands that you stop and listen, once you do you are hook, not because he was Chadwick Boseman but because the Spirit of God in him commanded it the love,the kindness, the peace , the wisdom and even the joy that he showed and given will be spoken of for generations to come. What a blessing he was to us all. I thank God I got to experience his gifts in my lifetime. And for this I say thank you Jesus Christ
