Sharon did not disclose her mother’s cause of death.
Notes of condolences poured in from fans and friends, including 82-year-old actress Holland Taylor, who wrote, ‘Look at those eyes!!! I’m sure you will always see them, inside— love to you!’
Another actress, Uzo Aduba offered, ‘Oh. I’m so sorry for your loss, Sharon.’
Gwyneth Paltrow simple added a broken heart emoji to the flood of messages.
Stone shared a photo of her parents in May, but didn’t explicitly mention her mom’s passing.
She captioned the post, ‘These were They; The beautiful couple. On angels’ wings.’
In November 2021 the actress shared a single photo of her mom on Instagram and asked followers to ‘say a prayer’ after she had suffered an acute stroke.
An obituary shared earlier this year on Legacy.com said the matriarch ‘passed away peacefully with her family and close friends by her side.’

The tribute also noted that Dorothy, known as Dot to friends, married Joseph Stone in 1950 and the couple welcomed four kids.
Together they started a small tool & die business called Aggressive Forge, with Dorothy serving as bookkeeper.
Stone’s family has a history with strokes. Along with Sharon’s mother, her grandmother and she herself have all suffered from strokes.
It’s led to the Hollywood fixture becoming an advocate for brain-aging diseases that disproportionally affect women.
‘This is why I do it: My mother had a stroke. My grandmother had a stroke. I had a massive stroke — and a nine-day brain bleed,’ Stone said at a 2019 benefit.
