Mary Stuart Masterson announced her mother's death on Instagram:

On Thursday, July 13th, my mother, Carlin Glynn Masterson, passed away. I was with her. I will always be grateful for those last moments, no matter how hard.

Death is like birth in the oddest way. From my first breath to her last. This thread is as fragile as it is strong.

She was the most graceful clumsy person you would ever meet. Strong, smart, silly, intuitive, kind, generous, passionate and a deep listener. She was devoted to my father and to the enormous circle of students and collaborators who were considered her chosen family.
