“Rest now, grandmom,” Sullivan wrote on her Instagram Story according to Bossip. “I know mommy is so happy to see you! These women are the very reason I sing and write.

And I am proud to continue carrying myself in the light in which they raised me! God I thank you for my time with them! I’ll miss you grandma. Hug mommy for me.”
