Chuck Norris has revealed his mother, Wilma, has died at the age of 103.
The “Walker, Texas Ranger” star announced his mom’s death in a post on Instagram Friday.
Norris, 84, shared a series of photos with his mother and said she passed away on Wednesday.
“Wednesday morning, my brother Aaron and I’s wonderful mother went home to be with Jesus,” Norris captioned his post. “Our mom was a woman of unwavering faith, a beacon of light in our lives, and her love reflected God’s grace.”
“Growing up, her laughter filled our home with joy, and her hugs provided a sense of safety that we will forever cherish.”
Norris continued, “She had a remarkable way of making everyone feel special, often putting the needs of others before her own. From my earliest memories, she taught me the importance of kindness and compassion.”
“I am so thankful for the countless lessons she shared, the prayers she lifted for us, and the way she embodied the love of Christ every day.”
The star signed the post, “We love you, Mom. Until we meet again.”
Wilma Norris Knight was born May 4, 1921.
Last year, Norris celebrated his mom’s birthday on Facebook, writing that she was “so full of life that she might make it another 100 years!”
He added that he was “overwhelmed with gratitude to God” for his mother, “I wouldn’t be the man I am” without her.
Wilma penned an autobiography in 2012 titled, “Acts of Kindness: My Story,” in which she shared stories about her life and her son’s childhood.
She promoted the book on former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee’s since-cancelled Fox News show.
