Wow, 69 is just too young to go. Afeni Shakur, born Alice Faye Williams, passed away at a hospital in Sausilito California, after collapsing at her home of an apparent cardiac arrest, ,she was just 69 yrs old. Afeni was the mother of Tupac Shakur, the deceased rapper and actor who was brutally murdered in Las Vegas many years ago. Afeni took control of her son's estate after he passed away and did quite well with it. It earned her a hefty $900,000.00 per year.
Shakur, changed her name when she moved to New York and joined the Black Panthers. She and other members were arrested in 1969 and charged with conspiracy to bomb multiple busy city landmarks. She was acquitted of the charges in May 1971 and gave birth to Tupac just one month later.
Rest in peace, Afeni.
