Best Actor was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather. His family has released the following statement expressing their sentiments and responding to the outpouring of love from those impacted by his legendary life. “There are no words to convey the deep sense of loss and sadness we are feeling right now.
We are so grateful he was able to spend his last day surrounded by his family and friends. To us Sidney Poitier was not only a brilliant actor, activist, and a man of incredible grace and moral fortitude, he was also a devoted and loving husband, a supportive and adoring father, and a man who always put family first.
He is our guiding light who lit up our lives with infinite love and wonder. His smile was healing, his hugs the warmest refuge, and his laughter was infectious.
