Nick Gordon's mom: "Our thoughts are with the Houstons and Browns"

Michele Gordon, mother of Bobbi Kristina Brown's one-time companion Nick Gordon, just issued this statement:

"The passing of Bobbi Kristina is devastating to Nick and our family. Nick loved and cared for Krissi deeply, and he has suffered greatly each and every day they've been apart. Nick and our family are in mourning, and we ask that you respect our privacy. Our thoughts and prayers are with both the Houstons and the Browns during this difficult time."
