"Two years. Two years since she graced this earth with her beautiful presence," the 51-year-old captioned the slideshow set to "Hey Mum" by Mandi Fisher. "So many things I would have liked to share with her, discuss with her, and had her hold my hand and heart through."

"This woman, the woman I am honored and blessed to call Mom, was the epitome of strength, kindness, and love," she continued. "To know her was to love her, and to be loved by her. She will be forever in my heart and the hearts of so many. She will be forever missed."

Meanwhile, a fourth fan dished out advice on processing the death of a loved one. "Grief never goes away...its like the waves of the ocean sometimes it is a tsunami that swallows us up and other days it is a gentle splash to remind us of our loss," they explained.

Bonnie died in March 2021 at 76-years-old. Meri did not specify her cause of death at the time and only mentioned that it was "sudden."

"It's comforting to know she's in the arms of my dad once again, looking on from above, leading, guiding, and loving like they always have," she later reflected in a March 2022 Instagram post, referring to her late dad, Bill, who passed away in 2007. "So grateful for all the years I had with her."
