Country singer Kalie Shorr revealed over the weekend that her older sister died of a heroin overdose.
The "Fight Like a Girl" singer shared the sad news with fans via social media.
"It’s so hard when you love someone and they are battling addiction because they lose so much of themselves in the process, but I am so thankful for the last conversation I had with her," the singer shared. "I really got to tell her how much I loved her and the last words she ever said to me were 'I am so proud of you' I’ll never forget that and that’s how I will always remember her."

Shorr, 24, also thanked her fans for their support.
