Yeah it's odd. Especially for those of us whose moms weren't such wonderful blessed martyrs (eyeroll). Doesn't really bolster any particular point either, unless maybe it's about careerism in the department, but otherwise seems petty: "My mom's death didn't get enough likes." Would've been good to expand on the theme maybe. Although that would've incurred costs to the current brevity.
