On Sunday night, Houston Texans superstar J.J. Watt wrote a touching tribute to his great-grandmother, who passed away.
Rest peacefully beautiful soul.
Thank you for being the guiding light of our family for so many years. 101 years is a truly remarkable run.
We love you Great-Grandma.
You will be forever missed. pic.twitter.com/DN7KYRPUtY— JJ Watt (@JJWatt) February 11, 2019
One person responded to this touching memorial by writing, “Missed like those Hurricane Harvey funds.”
Most of us would not take this well, but Watt’s response was pure class and showed remarkable restraint.
Thank you for being so considerate on a post about the death of my great-grandmother. If you care to take even half a second to click on my page, you’d see the top “pinned” tweet (since August) that explains exactly where/how the funds are being used.
Have a great day. https://t.co/CMd22slCoM— JJ Watt (@JJWatt) February 11, 2019
Remember, Watt raised $36 million to help people whose lives were devastated by Hurricane Harvey back in 2017. His efforts included providing food, water and supplies during the crisis, and since then his foundation has put people back in their homes.
Watt remains committed to serving the people in his community, and his one-year update for the Hurricane Harvey Relief shows that.
