(Us Weekly) – The family is leaning on him. Hollywood power player Tyler Perry offered his support to Bobby Brown when he heard the news of Bobbi Kristina‘s hospitalization this past weekend.

A source close to Perry tells Us Weekly that the actor, writer and producer, a close friend of the Brown family, is currently at Bobbi Kristina’s bedside and lending his support as the 21-year-old daughter of Brown and the late Whitney Houston remains in critical condition in the North Fulton Hospital in Roswell, Ga.

“Tyler was absolutely shocked by the news,” the source tells Us. “He heard the news and immediately offered Bobby Brown a flight in his private jet, which is why they arrived at the hospital together.”

Brown took the private jet from L.A. to Atlanta on Saturday, Jan. 31, to rush to his daughter’s bedside. Another insider tells Us that Perry was already bound for Atlanta. “He called Bobby immediately and offered to take him,” the source tells Us.

Love Life Organization Shows Love

As part of Love Life Week, the Love Life Foundation was honored to produce the 1974-75 World Champion Golden State Warrior Day. It’s a shame that our first Bay Area World Championship team’s unique accolades had been lost in the pre social media era and the cultural revolution of the 1970s.

As part of Love Life Week, the Love Life Foundation was honored to produce the 1974-75 World Champion Golden State Warrior Day.

It’s a shame that our first Bay Area World Championship team’s unique accolades had been lost in the pre social media era and the cultural revolution of the 1970s.

The 1975 NBA World Championship team were invited back to the City of Oakland last Friday, to be properly celebrated for their ground-breaking performance in 1975.

The heartwarming ceremony highlighted the recent passing of the legendary coach of that team, Al Attlles, and his former players Clifford Ray and Charles Dudley were on hand to represent the “Cardiac Kids” as they were called back then for their ability to make great comeback victories during their run for the title.

Warriors great Chris Mullin and former spiritual advisor Gary Reeves gave heartfelt testimonies of their experiences under Attles’ leadership and their relationship with the inspiration they received from the NBA 1975 World Champion Golden State Warriors.

The City of Oakland provided proclamations to all parties with speeches made by city leadership including Mayor Sheng Thao and Deputy Mayor Dr. Kimberly Mayfield and activity host Love Life non-profit founder and Executive Director Donald E. Lacy Jr..
