Mark Wahlberg and Donnie Wahlberg are mourning a devastating loss. The famous brothers announced the death of their beloved mother, Alma, on Sunday. She was 78. Both actors shared touching tributes to their mom on Instagram, with Mark posting a photo of Alma alongside a brief but meaningful caption, writing, ”My angel. Rest in peace.” My mom Alma s joy for life, love and people combined with a pride in her humble beginnings and refusal to forget where she came from undoubtedly shaped me into the man that I am, the Blue Bloods star wrote. I ve often said, if you like anything about me, I got it from Alma. I say that, because it s true. She was, without a doubt, the most loving human being I ve ever known.
