Comedian Kathy Griffin announced that her mom, a fixture of her reality show, has died. 'I am gutted. My best friend. I am shaking. I won't ever be prepared. I'm so grateful you guys got to be part of her life,' she wrote to fans.
"My Mom, the one and only, Maggie Griffin, passed away today," she wrote."I am gutted. My best friend. I am shaking. I won't ever be prepared. I'm so grateful you guys got to be part of her life. You knew her. You loved her. She knew it. Oh, and OF COURSE she went on St. Patrick's Day." Representatives for Griffin confirmed her mother's death to CNN.Griffin announced in January that her mother was suffering from dementia.
But when it comes to my mom this is particularly hard because her sharp mind was everything. My mom is 98 and up until this past couple years she was so sharp she always kept me on my toes. Her mind was so naturally quick, funny, and smart. No one could get anything past her. Watching that slip away so fast has been devastating.I want to assure you all that she is not in pain and she is getting the best 24-hour care.
