Tafari Campbell: Barack And Michelle Obama Pay Tribute To Personal Chef

Barack and Michelle Obama have paid tribute to their personal chef, Tafari Campbell after he drowned while paddleboarding in a pond.

Barack and Michelle Obama have paid moving tributes to their personal chef who drowned while paddleboarding in eight feet of water near their Martha’s Vineyard home.

 

Sharing a photo of himself and the former first lady with tragic Tafari Campbell on Instagram, the former president 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 shared a similar snap of herself posing with Campbell and Obama in the White House and wrote: ‘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.”

Campbell was found dead close to the Obamas’ Martha’s Vineyard home on July 25.

He had served as their personal chef in the White House and left to continue working for the couple at the end of Obama’s second term in 2016.

Martha’s Vineyard Police have concluded Campbell’s drowning was an accident.
