Jojo's dad, Joel Maurice Levesque, passed away on Nov. 14, Saturday, at the age of 60.
Her daughter, the "Too Little, Too Late" singer and actress paid tribute to her dad with a touching message on Instagram, alongside a throwback photo, while she was still on tour, ET Online reported.
"I missed you even while you were here. I will miss you infinitely more now that you're gone. Thank you for holding on as long as you did. I know you tried your best. Jojo wrote.
"You are free now. I will love you always, dad. I can feel you with me. Rest now. In PEACE. I miss your voice. I wish more people could have heard it. I promise I will keep singing for you."
Despite her father's death, Jojo went forth with her scheduled appearance to sing the national anthem at the Quicken Loans Race for Heroes in Phoenix, Arizona on Nov. 15, Sunday, Cele Buzz reported. She dedicated the moving performance to her late father who was a disabled veteran.
JoJo, whose real name is Joanna Levesque, recently initiated her musical comeback. In August, she unveiled a tringle, which included a group of three singles. Among the singles, was the song "When Love Hurts." The three songs were her latest release since her 2006 hit, "Too Little Too Late."
Meanwhile, the Massachusetts native found herself in a years-long legal battle with her record label that kept her out of the spotlight, until her father's death which has come as a negative attention.
Embracing Jojo's message of loving and understanding each other better, fans continue to give their condolences to her, on various platforms.
