Travis Barker honored the memory of his late mother in a tender posting on social media Thursday. 

The rocker, 48, who is married to Kourtney Kardashian, 45, shared photos of a recent visit to his mom’s grave. 

Gloria Barker, died September 3, 1990, just three months after being diagnosed with Sjogren syndrome, and autoimmune disease that causes dry mouth and eyes. 

‘I wish heaven had visiting hours,’ the drummer wrote on the carousel of photos from the mausoleum where Gloria’s body is entombed. 

Two of the snaps show Barker wearing a white and black FTP x Famous Stars and Straps shirt as he knelt by the plaque stating his mother’s name  along with the years 1947-1990 with the accolade ‘Beloved Wife and Mother.’ 

It’s written next to her husband Randall’s name, with his birth year, 1942.

‘Man do I feel that.❤️,’ empathized a fan. ‘We miss those we love,’ stated another. 

In his memoir, Can I Say: Living Large, Cheating Death, and Drums, Drums, Drums, Barker wrote his mom was a big supporter of his learning the drums and went the extra mile to make sure he understood his lessons. 

‘My dad drove us, and my mom always sat in the room and taped the lesson. She learned how to read music and hold the drumsticks right; if I didn’t understand something I could always go to her,’ he said. 

Gloria passed away when Barker was 12 and he never got to say goodbye in person.

‘All that summer, I went to the hospital with my family every day to see my mom. It hurt so bad to see her so weak and helpless,’ he wrote. 

‘The day before school started, my family was driving over to visit her, but I wanted to ride my bike. I got on my Schwinn beach cruiser and arrived about an hour after everybody else,’ he revealed.

‘When I walked into the hospital room, everyone was crying hysterically–I knew what had happened before anybody could say anything.’

Barker has paid permanent tribute to both his parents, having portraits on Gloria and Randall tattooed on his body.
