Whitney Houston's Family Pays Tribute on the Three-Year Anniversary of Her Death—Read Their Touching Words

It is an extremely tough day for the Houston and Brown families.

Today marks the three-year anniversary of Whitney Houston's death, and members of her family are taking to Facebook and Instagram to post tributes to the late singer and actress, who left a powerful impact on the world with her wonderful talents; however, it is an especially difficult day as Houston's daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, remains hospitalized after also being discovered nearly drowned in a bathtub.

The family has been calling for continued prayers for Bobbi Kristina, but in the meantime they have taken a moment to honor their late relative.

Tina Brown, Houston's sister-in-law, posted on Facebook a message about the Grammy winner.

"I miss you MY sister...rip nip….I miss you sis,...like crazy!!!!!!-...rip my sister...," she posted, adding that she was "feeling heartbroken" in the status. She also included several photos of Whitney, including the Ebony cover of Whitney, husband Bobby Brown and their daughter.

Bobbi Kristina's cousin, Jerod Brown, posted a lengthy message in honor of the "My Love Is Your Love" singer and included the last photo he ever took with his aunt.

"You will never know the last moment you will experience, the last conversation you will have, the last photo you will take. Well this was the last photo we took with you auntie and if I would have known that I would've taken a few more lol," he wrote. "In life we forget to take a few more photos, share a few more laughs, shed a few more tears, overcome a few more struggles, mentor a few more people."
