Former US First family Barack and Michelle Obama are mourning the tragic loss of their family chef Tafari Campbell.
The two shared photos of them hanging out with Campbell as they went on to eulogize the amazing human being that Tafari had been.
On his Instagram page, the former president shared two photos of him and his wife alongside the late chef with nothing but kind words for Tafari. The Emmy award-winning narrator expressed he felt an emptiness within as he worded how terribly he'd miss Tafari.
Captioning the post the father of two wrote,
“Tafari Campbell showed us what true character looks like. He believed that actions speak louder than words.
And he used his immense gifts to bring people together, provide comfort, and spread joy. I’ll miss him every day,”
Michelle on her part also shared a photo of her and her husband alongside their chef as well as one photo of Campbell smiling brightly while holding a basket with artistic meals.
She went on to mourn their former employee highlighting that Tafari was a friend to her and her family
"I will miss my friend, Tafari... the emptiness is hard. But I promise to stay strong, keep living, and honor your legacy in every way possible. Rest in peace, my brother,” her emotional post read.
