Billie Lourd Pays Tribute to Late Mother Carrie Fisher

On Thursday, the second anniversary of Carrie Fisher’s death, Billie Lourd paid tribute to her late mother with a touching rendition of “These Days.” Lourd posted the video of her singing and playing the song on the piano on Instagram.

“It has been two years since my Momby’s death and I still don’t know what the ‘right” thing to do on a death anniversary is (I’m sure a lot of you feel the same way about your loved ones),” Lourd wrote in the caption. “So I decided to do something a little vulnerable for me, but something we both loved to do together – sing.”

Fisher suffered a heart attack in 2016 and passed away on Dec. 27, 2016 at the age of 60.

🎏🅾️®️ ♏️🅾️♏️🅱️🌱It has been two years since my Momby’s death and I still don’t know what the “right” thing to do on a death anniversary is (I’m sure a lot of you feel the same way about your loved ones). So I decided to do something a little vulnerable for me, but something we both loved to do together - sing. This is the piano her father gave her and this was one of her favorite songs. And as the song says, we must “keep on moving”. I’ve found that what keeps me moving is doing things that make me happy, working hard on the things that I’m passionate about and surrounding myself with people I love and making them smile. I hope this encourages anyone feeling a little low or lost to “keep on moving”. As my Momby once said, “take your broken heart and turn it into art” - whatever that art may be for you. ❤️
