Marilyn Manson took to Twitter on Sunday to mourn the death of his mother, Barbara J. Warner.

Marilyn Manson Mourns His Mother

Warner passed away last week at the age of 68. According to her obituary, Warner died “after a long battle with dementia.” Instead of flowers, the family requested that donations be made to the Alzheimer’s Association. A private service was held to honor Warner.

Manson is clearly devastated by the loss. On Sunday he tweeted a message to his mother, calling her “the first and greatest believer in me.” In the message, Manson also vowed to make his mother proud.

“I hope I see you again someday. But not now, because I have more things I promised I would do. I’ll make you proud and satisfied that you know that you made the son you wanted. I love you,” he wrote.

Manson has often cited his mother as one of his biggest inspirations and the two appear to have been close. In November 2013, Manson posted a photo of his parents on their wedding day to celebrate their 49th anniversary.

Manson’s ex-fiancée, Evan Rachel Wood posted a message on Twitter that seemed to be for Manson, though it was not explicitly directed towards Manson.

“An old friend of mine just lost someone very close to them. I know we don’t speak anymore but my heart is with u today,” Wood wrote.
