Quincy Jones made sure he didn’t forget his family during his final moments.
Hours before the music legend’s death at his Beverly Hills home at the age of 91, he sent a touching last message on social media to his daughter, Martina, who turned 58 on Sunday.
Jones had seven kids with five different women, including Jolie, 71; Rachel, 61; Martina, 58; Quincy III, 56; Kidada, 50; Rashida, 48; and Kenya, 31.
Martina’s mom, Swedish model Ulla Anderson, was also the mother of his only son, Quincy III.
Anderson married Jones in 1967, a few months after giving birth to Martina.
After Anderson and Jones divorced in 1974, Martina lived in Sweden with her mother before becoming a model herself and, later, a photographer.
Jones posted his birthday message on Instagram with a photo of them together and the following caption:
