“Although he’s gone, he’s still with us,” Damson shared in an interview with The Root. “He taught me as a black person to always think of your community first. As long as your community welcomes you, you’ll always have a home.”

John Singleton has sadly died at the age of 51.

The screenwriter, producer and director, known best for Boyz N The Hood, died on Monday (April 29) after being taken off of life support earlier in the day by his loved ones following a massive stroke nearly two weeks prior.

Among his many achievements, he was the first African-American nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director.

“We want to thank the amazing doctors at Cedars-Sinai Hospital for their expert care and kindness and we again want thank all of John’s fans, friends and colleagues for all of the love and support they showed him during this difficult time,” his family said in a statement.

A family spokesperson confirmed that he passed away peacefully surrounded by his family and friends at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

“Like many African Americans, Singleton quietly struggled with hypertension. More than 40% of African American men and women have high blood pressure, which also develops earlier in life and is usually more severe. His family wants to share the message with all to please recognize the symptoms by going to Heart.org,” the family urged earlier in the day upon delivering the life support news.

Director John Singleton, known for his work directing Boyz n the Hood, is reportedly in a coma after suffering what is being described as a “major stroke.”

TMZ learned that John’s mother has filed legal documents to be John‘s temporary conservator while he’s in a coma.

The documents say he’s “unable to properly provide for his personal needs for physical health, food, clothing, or shelter.” His mom also said at the time of the stroke he was involved in some business dealings and a “lucrative settlement agreement,” and she wants to be able to handle those affairs.

John suffered a stroke while in the hospital. He checked himself in after experiencing problems with his legs after a trip to Costa Rica.
