Degrassi Stars Pay Tribute to Jahmil French After His Death: "You Were So Loved"

Sam, who played K.C., remembered Jahmil on Twitter, writing: "Jahmil had such talent and charisma that it would have been intimidating were he not also a real gentleman. He would show up to my house-parties with a crew of dancers and they would elevate the mood immediately. When life got messy he would handle himself with grace and levity. He was precocious. And his love for music (and dance) was contagious. He showed me Section 80 by Kendrick Lamar, made me appreciate Drake's Houston sound... Wish I'd gotten the chance to catch up with him one more time, hear where his mind/dreams were at."
