Follow Us
The last couple of months have been pretty tough for the NASCAR community. Back in October, IndyCar legend, Al Unser passed away. Earlier this month, the Keselowski clan bid a tearful farewell to their patriarch, Bob Keselowski. Now, Dale Earnhardt Jr and his family have announced that their grandmother, Martha Earnhardt, passed away on Christmas Day.
A statement from Kelley Earnhardt read, “It is with great sadness that we share the news that Martha Earnhardt passed away Christmas evening. As we grieve her loss and begin to imagine life without our beloved ‘Mamaw’, we find solace in knowing she is at peace in eternal glory. And in joyous reunion with her husband Ralph and sons, Dale, Randy and Danny. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you so much for loving our Mamaw as if she were your own. She was not just the matriarch to our family, but she was the matriarch to multiple generations of race fans.”
