Johnny Depp honors co-star's enthusiasm for life after surfer's death in shark attack during filming of Pirates of the Caribbean.
In a heartfelt message on his Instagram page, Johnny Depp expressed his sorrow over the passing of his former Pirates of the Caribbean co-star, Tamayo Perry. The news of Perry's death was shocking and devastating, as he was found with severe injuries after being attacked by a shark while surfing near Goat Island in Hawaii.

According to first responders, Perry had suffered more than one shark bite and despite their efforts, he tragically passed away. Depp, who played Captain Jack Sparrow in the franchise, paid tribute to the late actor by sharing a photo of him in a wetsuit, holding a surfboard. In his caption, Depp fondly remembered Perry as a lovely man with a huge heart and a zest for life. He also sent his love and strength to Perry's wife, Emilia, and assured her that she was in his thoughts.

Depp also shared a message on his Instagram Stories, along with a link to a GoFundMe page that had been set up by Perry's loved ones. The page aimed to raise funds for Perry's funeral expenses and to support his wife in the future. Depp also mentioned that Perry had starred in the 2011 film, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, and encouraged his followers to donate to the cause.

The GoFundMe page described Perry as a hero in his own story, with a strong conviction to always do what was right without fear. He was known as a big brother figure to many, with a stern yet kind smile. His love for surfing had led him to roles in popular movies like Blue Crush and Lost, and he was a skilled lifeguard on the North Shore in the 90s.

The page also shared that Perry's faith in Jesus was the foundation of his life. Even though his passing was tragic, his loved ones found comfort in knowing that he was in heaven, catching waves with his friends who had gone before him. The page thanked everyone who had donated and announced a celebration of Perry's life at Ehukai Beach Park, which would be funded by the donations.

In an update, the page expressed their gratitude for the overwhelming support and generosity they had received. They also shared a quote from the Bible, emphasizing the importance of faith, hope, and love in dealing with such a loss. The funds raised would go towards supporting Emilia as she navigated life without her husband, who was not only her partner but also her best friend and provider.

In light of this tragic news, Depp urged anyone with a story, video, or pictures to reach out to the entertainment team at The Agency. He encouraged them to share their memories and stories of Perry, in honor of his life and legacy. Depp, along with many others, will surely miss Perry and his infectious smile, but his love and faith will continue to live on through those who knew and loved him.
