Scotty McCreery experienced double tragedy last week. On Wednesday, both of his grandmothers, Janet Hunter Cooke and Paquita McCreery, passed away just hours apart. Scotty's mother, Judy Cooke McCreery, posted the sad news on her personal Facebook page. "Here is a post I hoped I wouldn’t be making for several years. My precious mom, age 85, passed away yesterday at WakeMed, shortly after 1pm," she wrote. "She had been battling norovirus & the flu, which led to dehydration and pneumonia. My heart is broken. I have to accept it was her time." She added that it was the second monumental loss for the family within 24 hours. "This is hard to fathom, but we also lost Mike’s mom, Paquita, yesterday, a few hours later at 4pm,” she wrote. “She was 93 and had been in declining health." Scotty posted a tribute to both women on his Instagram, which you can see below...
