‘Good Times’ Star John Amos Dies at 84
Amos was cremated on August 30th… just 9 days after his death.
The death certificate lists Amos’ son, Kelly, also known as KC, as the “informant” — meaning he was the one who informed the county about his father’s death.
According to the document, no autopsy was performed.
In the “Type of Disposition” field it is written “cremation/residence”. And then it says the disposal site is KC’s house. This clearly means he is in possession of the ashes.
As we reported, John’s daughter Shannon claims she didn’t know her father had died until yesterday when KC announced her father had died.
There was bad blood between KC and Shannon after she accused her brother of elder abuse… an allegation that was ultimately dismissed by authorities.
It looks like a fight over John’s assets could be imminent.
