Former The Voice contestant Lauren Duski is experiencing a great loss. 

The country singer shared the news that her mother, Dr. Janis Patricia Duski, recently passed away in a moving message on social media.

"Said goodbye to my best friend and hero this past Friday," the 32-year-old began her Jan. 9 post. "My mom was the greatest human I've ever known. There was no one who loved harder.  She offered her entire being—heart and soul to everyone she encountered and always held up the mirror to remind you of how wonderful and special you were."
