Michaela DePrince died Sept. 10 at the age of 29 and her mother Elaine DePrince, who adopted her as a young girl, died Sept. 11 “during a routine procedure in preparation for a surgery,” according to a family statement shared on Facebook. The DePrince family did not immediately share a cause of death for Michaela DePrince.
“As unbelievable as it may seem, the two deaths were completely unrelated,” the family said in part in their statement, which was also shared with ABC News. “The only way we can make sense of the senseless is that Elaine, who had already lost three children many years ago, was by the grace of God spared the pain of experiencing the loss of a fourth child.”
