John Amos’ Cause Of Death Revealed Amid Public Clashes Between His Children

“Good Times” star John Amos died of congestive heart failure more than a month ago, People reports.

The news of his passing at 84 years old broke Tuesday , though Amos reportedly had died more than one month earlier. His son, K.C. Amos, divulged at the time that natural causes were to blame.

According to a death certificate obtained earlier this week by People , Amos died of congestive heart failure on Aug. 21 at 5:18 p.m. at a hospital in Inglewood. The certificate also confirmed Amos was cremated on Aug. 30 without a prior autopsy.

The slow drip of news about the actor’s passing has exacerbated a feud between K.C. and his sister, Shannon Amos — who announced Wednesday that she only learned about her father’s death “through the media.” K.C. was the person who reported John Amos’ death to police, according to People.

“We are devastated and left with many questions about how this happened 45 days ago, learning about it through the media like so many of you,” Shannon wrote on Instagram at the time , adding she is “struggling” to process the “uncertainties surrounding his passing.”
