God bless his family.
Romans 10:9 👑
Life is unfair and uncertain.
He should have stayed home and swam
Rip Theo forever in my heart
RIP…
The truth is, Jesus is the Son of God. He was crucified, died for our sins and was resurrected by God the Father three days later. He now sits at the right hand of Power!
Jesus wants you to be with Him in heaven. And He is the only way. If you don't know Jesus, please pray this prayer: "God Almighty, I'm a sinner. I turn from my sins now and follow you, Jesus Christ, and ask for your forgiveness. I believe You are the Son of God, who died on the cross and were resurrected on the third day by God the Father. Thank you for dying for my sins, Jesus and cleansing me with your precious blood. In Jesus' name, Amen."
Believe in who Jesus is, what He has done and give your life to Him. Be saved from an eternity without His love!

Growing up in the 80’s in my head I was part of the family
So very sad

That is so sad 😢
Water and celebs do not mix
I just got word of Malcom Jamal Warners accidental death. My sincere condolences to his family. The Cosby Show was one of my favorite sitcoms back in the 80's and 90's. Malcom was absolutely great as Theo. I still watch the reruns sometimes.
