John Stamos is mourning the loss of his beloved mother.

The Full House alum announced on Instagram that Loretta Stamos passed away Monday in her home surrounded by her children and grandchildren.

"My mother had enough love to fuel a small country," the actor captioned in a precious throwback picture with his mom. "She was truly one of a kind and will live forever in the hearts of all who knew her."

He added, "A few weeks ago, I asked my mom if she remembered an inconsequential event—she simply replied, ‘I only remember the love.' #Brokenhearted #Iloveyouthemost."

The duo shared an incredible bond that was visible when Stamos celebrated his 50th birthday last summer.

Out of all the ways to celebrate a milestone, John simply wanted to enjoy the day with "the love of my life," or his beautiful mom.

"last few hours being 40 w/ the woman that birthed me," he tweeted with a photo of Loretta hugging her son. "She said conception (in vegas) was so much fun—I said TMI."

Guess we know where John got his sense of humor from.

For those who would like to send their condolences to the Stamos family, John asked fans to make a donation to The Vanguard Cancer Foundation.

Founded by Loretta, the non-profit was started in hopes of providing personalized and intelligent care to cancer patients.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Stamos family!
