Less than a week after the death of Jamie Sangouthai, Lamar Odom’s best friend, he has lost a second close friend due to a drug overdose. Bobby Heyward, a producer and writer, died at age 30 on Saturday, June 20. The L.A. County Coroners office confirms that Heyward passed away, but did not confirm an official cause of death.

What makes the situation even more heartbreaking is the fact that Bobby’s final Instagram post was a tribute to Jamie.

“#RIP To my big brother Jamie who always brought light into any room he walked into and laughter as well at all times J you will always be missed. Family for life. #BandOfBrothers #tbt,” Heyward had captioned the photo with Sangouthai (far right), Odom (center), and another friend (bottom left).

A source tells Us that Odom is beside himself as he was still close with Bobby prior to his death. Bobby was also close with Lamar’s wife Khloe Kardashian, who reached out to her Lamar after his best friend, Jamie’s death.

Lord be a fence around Lamar, if he ever needed the Lord before, he sure does need you now.
