Rest Up, Antwain

Last week, we learned of the devastating news of the passing of Antwain Fowler, a beloved social media icon, at the tender age of 6.

Antwain’s rise to fame is due in part to his “Where we bout to eat at?” video that went viral. Over the past few years, I do recall watching some of his videos, and they never failed to disappoint. His passion for indulging in his meals was enviable at best.

But what was evident about Antwain was his spirit and his energy despite his medical condition (a rare autoimmune disorder). He danced like no one watched, and he ate the way that he wanted to. Simple stated, he did it his way. His life was short yet full. Although so young, we can all learn something from this child who showed so much strength and resilience, even through his pain. You will be truly missed, Antwain.

Sleep on, sleep on.
