The 3x Super Bowl winning QB's mother put out a message on Friday following the news of her father passing away at the age of 78.

"Hard to find the words of holding my fathers hand as he goes to Heaven. I know he's in a better place. I love you daddy. Well done, good and faithful servant! Matthew 25:23," wrote Randi Mahomes in an Instagram post.

It was announced ahead of the AFC Championship game vs. the Bills that Mahomes' grandpa was in hospice, as Randi gave an update: "My dad is in hospice and I'm lost for words."

Ultimately, after defeating the Bills 32-29, Martin was able to watch his grandson play in Super Bowl 59, which was his fifth appearance in a six-year span.

With the Chiefs having a chance to become the first team in NFL history to three-peat, they ultimately came up short, losing 40-22 to the Philadelphia Eagles.

That is, Mahomes still had 257 yards and three touchdowns.

Prayers up for the Mahomes family as they deal with their loss at this time.
