Patrick Mahomes's mom Randi asked for prayers as Larry Martin's health declined in December

Patrick Mahomes's mother Randi Mahomes shared in December that her father, Larry "Randy" Martin's health was declining. After spending Christmas with the quarterback and their family, she returned to care for her father. Randi Mahomes asked her Instagram followers to pray for her father.

"Asking for prayers for my father," Mahomes wrote on her Instagram in December.

Mahomes told People magazine, just last week, that she felt her father was holding on just so that he could watch Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. Martin had entered hospice care last month.

"I know that it has meant a lot to him," Mahomes said in the interview "And I think he’s hanging on because he wants to see his grandson do an amazing thing or just let him play.”

Patrick Mahomes hasn't shared a post on social media about his grandfather's passing. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback has not been active on social media after the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl.
