Amy Roloff Shared a Heartbreaking Instagram About Her Mom and Fiancé Chris Marek
In late September, Amy Roloff of Little People Big World shared that her mother, Patricia Knight, had died at the age of 86. This past Sunday, Amy posted on Instagram that she's currently feeling emotionally "torn."
As Amy penned in her social media post, she is "happy" that her mother isn't "in pain" anymore but still "misses her so much." On top of that, Amy, who is in Michigan now for her mother's memorial service on Thursday, said she's also missing her fiancé, Chris Marek (though, Amy says Chris and her kids — Jeremy, Jacob, Molly, and Zach — will be there for the service).
"It’s a kind of mixed emotions for my heart kind of day. I’m sad and yet I know I’m blessed in many ways and I’m so thankful for life and moments," she wrote alongside a photo of herself and Chris and a separate image of her parents. "Remember to be kind and let others know you love them every day. Life is but a moment and let’s collect as many as we can while doing our best to live life."
Amy's fans quickly took to the Roloff matriarch's comment section to show their support. "Losing a parent changes you to be full of love for everyone ❤️❤️❤️ having children changes you too 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 blessings," one fan wrote. Another simply said: "Sorry for your loss💙."

In a previous statement to People, Amy echoed her sentiment about not taking things for granted.
"I am so sad about my mom’s passing, but comforted by all the memories I have and that she lived a happy, long life with my father. She was a great mom,” she said last month. “Life is a gift, appreciate the moments in each day.”
Earlier this summer, Amy took a trip to Michigan to be with her mother, who was admitted to the hospital at the time. The TLC reality star later said that although her mom's heart was "weak" and she was "getting tired easily," her mind was still "sharp."

"Just need to appreciate the moments, what she can do and the days that are left. Thank you to everyone that so thoughtfully thought of me and my parents and for all your prayers," Amy wrote on Instagram back in June. "So kind and I so appreciate it.❤️"
