Tippy Dos Santos remained in mourning for her mom, Happy, who died last Dec. 30 after figuring in a car accident in South Korea, as she expressed her gratitude to those who condoled with her family.
On her Instagram account on Monday, Jan. 1, Dos Santos admitted there are “no words” to express the “heartbreak” her family is going through after the loss of her mother.
“I would like to thank everyone who has reached out to my family and I during this time. Although we are unable to respond to each and every one of you, please know we are grateful,” she wrote. “There are really no words to express the devastation and heartbreak the loss of my mom has caused us.”
The singer-actress sought for understanding in her post, as her family is still coming to terms with Happy’s sudden death. “Please bear us as we try to figure out how to live without mama physically in our lives.”
“We hope for your understanding during our time of grief, as we are still trying to process the tragedy that has taken mama from us,” she continued. “Please keep my mama in your prayers. Please always keep mama in your memories. The care, love, light, and happiness she shared with all of us deserves to always be remembered.”
Dos Santos’ parents figured in a vehicular accident during what seemed to be a short getaway in Seoul, South Korea, last Dec. 27, which took Happy’s life three days later.
Meanwhile, Tippy’s dad, John, is recovering from his injuries as of this writing.
