AceShowbiz - LeMisha Grinstead has sadly suffered another loss. Just two months after her sister and groupmate Irish Grinstead passed away at the age of 43, the member of R&B girl group 702 lost her beloved mother.
Confirming the sad news was LeMisha's bandmate, Meelah Williams. Sharing a photo of the two and the late Irish, Meelah wrote, "#FBF … she's been gone two months…#Irish … My mom has been gone one year… And I don't know if you guys are aware or not, but #Irish and her sister @lemisha_the_gemini mom passed away 9 days ago, 2 months after her babygirl Irish passed away."
"Pls pray for @lemisha_the_gemini , me & #702 but also pls KNOW we are pushing forward," she added. "Happy Holidays! I miss my MOM, although it's been a year, I HAVE BEEN SUPER SAD & it's still weird that she's not here, and we're definitely missing Irish and it's even more weird that she's gone! But God got us & WE ARE HERE!!!!! #702 #Misha #Meelah #RIPIrish."
LeMisha herself announced her mom's passing on November 16. Sharing a video of her mother dancing, she penned, "My sweet mama Theresa gained her wings today. I am still not over losing my sister now this! Please continue to pray for me and the rest of my siblings, her siblings, her grandkids and my dad. We're going through it but we are strong!"
The devastating news arrived after LeMisha revealed in September that Irish had lost her battle with cancer. "It is with great sadness that I have to let you know that my beautiful sister and friend has passed away this evening," she wrote at the time. "She has had a long battle and she is finally at peace."
"That girl was as bright as the stars! She was not only beautiful on the outside, but also within. Sharing the stage with her was a joy I will cherish for the rest of my life!" the 43-year-old continued. "We, the family ask for prayers and respect for our privacy as we grieve an outstanding loss to our family."
