“Kiki, as she was known to her grandchildren and many others, touched so many lives with her kindness, her giant spirit and her love life,” Carson wrote in a statement to Us Weekly on Monday, September 18. “She will be terribly missed by her family and the world, but her spark will shine for eternity.”
In 2013, Daly opened up about his mom during his daytime job on the Today show. “I think having a strong parent has been such an inspiration because it’s a constant reminder me to find my own pillar of strength and to be that for my own growing family,” he said at the time.
Daly and his wife, Siri Pinter, are parents of Jackson, 8, Etta, 5, and London, 3.
