The Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes‘ grandmother and Randi Mahomes‘ mother, Debbie Bates, died on April 5 after battling with health issues for many days.
The news of Randi’s mother’s death was first published by a friend of the family, Teresa Jane. “My best friend Randi Mahomes lost her best of best friends yesterday…. Her sweet mom,” she wrote in a Facebook post. Since then, the family’s friends and well-wishers have been pouring out their sympathies and thoughts for the Mahomes family.
Patrick’s mother, Randi, recently released a heartfelt tribute to her mother’s passing through social media.
What did Randi Mahomes say about her mother?
The 50-year-old mother of the Super Bowl winner had to take time to say something about her departed, loving mother. Yesterday, in an Instagram post, she wrote, “I love you momma, I will see you again in Heaven 🙏🏽”

In the utterly emotional video, she shared highlights of the life they had shared and the love and life lessons she had learned from Debbie. She was the center of the Mahomes family for decades, and Patrick himself had taken a special place in Debbie’s heart.
Bates’ memorial service has held in Henderson, Texas, on Monday, and a family member, Angie Savoy, confirmed the news and said “Well, we are getting ready to make the long journey to Texas. Yes, it is a sad day, having lost an amazing angel yesterday.”
She was an enthusiastic football fan, and we have seen her in a Chiefs jersey occasionally. Her moral values and emotional support helped the family go through several perilous moments. Football fans are saddened that the Mahomes family lost their beloved guardian.
We from SportsZion send our thoughts and prayers for Randi Mahomes, along with Mahomes’ family.
