So sad to lose someone as it is but on Xmas Day had to be even harder, Didn't say if she'd been sick and they were expecting it or if it was suddenly. Hard to keep a happy atmosphere going for the 'tiny girls' as Amy calls them when their hearts were breaking. Plus losing Danny just 2 wks ago.
But she did have a good long life despite the terrible losses she suffered. She was dearly loved by her family and they made sure she knew it. LIFE may be like a box of chocolates, but not Dale Jr. With him, you always know what you are getting!

All true. I don't know how to link Kelly's Instagram but she said in part
"We thank you so much for loving our Mamaw as if she were your own. She was not just the matriarch to our family, but the matriarch to multiple generations of race fans."
She surely was.Geaux Jr. Geaux LSU Tigers Who Dat!
I saw that too

there hasn't been any more details but in what looked like a recent pix with them mamaw looked pretty rough, like maybe she'd been sick or something. She always looked so all together and pretty in her pix. But like someone in NASCAR said she's in Heaven with her boys.
