The world is mourning the loss of beloved actor and yoga teacher, Obi Ndefo. Best known for his role as Bodie on the hit American drama series, Dawson's Creek, Ndefo has passed away at the age of 51. His sister, Nkem Ndefo, shared the heartbreaking news of his death on her Facebook page. While the cause of death has not been disclosed, Nkem expressed her devastation and relief that her brother is now at peace.
Ndefo's character, Bodie, was a fan favorite on Dawson's Creek, and he appeared in the show from 1998 to 2002. He played a chef who settled in Capeside with his family and had a romantic relationship with Bessie Potter, with whom he welcomed a son named Alexander in 1998. Ndefo's on-screen chemistry with Bessie was loved by viewers, and his character's journey was a significant part of the show.
The news of Ndefo's passing is especially tragic as it comes just two years after a horrific hit-and-run incident that left him with both legs amputated. Ndefo had just finished teaching a yoga class and stopped at a grocery store in Los Angeles, California. While loading his car, he was struck by an SUV that veered out of its lane and then fled the scene. The impact resulted in one leg being severed, and the other was left hanging, forcing doctors to amputate it. Ndefo's strength and resilience in the face of this tragedy were an inspiration to many.
Ndefo's sister shared a sweet photo of the two of them together, along with her tribute to him. The photo captures Ndefo's warm smile, and it is a beautiful reminder of the person he was.
