There’s no one who misses Joan Rivers as much as her daughter, Melissa and beloved grandson, Cooper. With today marking the two-year anniversary of her sudden passing, the outpouring of tributes to her life and her laughter have been incredible.
Melissa shared a beautiful note on Joan’s Twitter page at the one-year anniversary of her passing:
“Today marks one year since my mother passed. This was the year of firsts: first holidays, first birthdays, first everythings without mom, without grandma,” the 47-year-old star, whose 14-year-old son Cooper was incredibly close to his grandmother, wrote.
