Khloé Kardashian is mourning her grandmother.
On Sunday, the Good American founder took to Instagram to pay tribute to her grandmother Mary Jo “MJ” Shannon, who heartbreakingly passed away at 91 years old on Thursday. In an incredibly touching post, Khloé wrote:
“My sweet MJ
Thank you for showing us that life is meant to be celebrated, that laughter is healing, and that love is the greatest legacy we can leave behind. You lived so fully, so gracefully, and so beautifully. One of my greatest blessings will always be that my children knew their great-grandmother. That they experienced your hugs, your stories, your joy, and the incredible light you carried so effortlessly.”
Awww. It truly is such a blessing that MJ got to be a part of not only her grandchildren’s lives, but her GREAT grandchildren’s lives!
The Kardashians star went on:
“You taught us that love never leaves. It lives on in the family you built, the traditions we’ll continue, the stories we’ll tell, and every time we choose joy. Your love will forever be woven into who we are. Thank you for every lesson, every laugh, every embrace, and every piece of your heart you gave so freely. You were truly one of one. I know Heaven welcomed you with open arms, surrounded by everyone who has been waiting to see you again. And I know you kept your promise telling my daddy just how deeply we love him and how much we miss him.”
We’re not crying! YOU’RE crying! She concluded:
“I know you’re happy having your coke, tuna sandwich and graham crackers with papa Harry while Karen dances around you. Until we meet again, my sweet MJ! I love you”
