Singer Ghost continues to mourn the death of his mother after a short battle with heart issues.

Ghost describes his mother, Joan Smith who died in Atlanta, Georgia on May 25, as a hard working single mother, “She loved us very much but dealt with us using tough love. Raising so many boys and my sisters alone, she wanted the best for us. I understand cuz she was doing it alone.”

She left behind behind 45 grandchildren, 5 great grandchildren, 6 sons and 2 daughters.

Music News understands that the funeral arrangements are being made by the family and will be disclosed soon.
