Lemon, who according to social media is currently in New Orleans, will not host “CNN Tonight” on Thursday.
Ugh. So, so sad.
Thanks everyone for your words of sympathy. Please keep my family in your prayers. Leisa was my oldest sister & partner in crime growing up. Always had my back. #RIPbigSis pic.twitter.com/9k1IVtqukQ

While I do not agree with your politics, I am very saddened to hear of your loss. I have sisters too, and I know I would be devastated if I lost them. She's now in God's loving arms. Heartfelt blessings to your entire family Mr. Lemon.

Thoughts and prayers to Don Lemon and family after the sudden and tragic loss of his sister. Politics and ideology should never enter into whether to grieve for anyone suffering loss. No one should have to go through this. https://t.co/7ifcwXxP7W

Don Lemon's oldest sister, Leisa Grimes, died in a tragic accident (Don here pictured with his Mom and Leisa); Don has traveled home to Louisiana to be with his family; Don said, "Leisa was my oldest sister and partner in crime growing up" and "always had my back." #RIPbigSis pic.twitter.com/0GQbS687zb

Sad news…@donlemon's sister, L'Tanya "Leisa" Lemon Grimes, died in a tragic accident yesterday. She was only 58. May her memory be a blessing.
