Alec Baldwin‘s mother has died aged 92. The 64-year-old actor took to Instagram to tell fans his mum Carol M Baldwin passed away in New York on Thursday, and admitted he and his family were “all enormously proud” of her. A statement posted on his page read: “It is with the deepest regret that my family posts the following statement.
“Carol M Baldwin, mother of actors Alec, Daniel, William and Stephen Baldwin and two daughters, Elizabeth and Jane, died today in Syracuse, New York. She was 92
Born Carol Newcomb Martineau, in Syracuse on December 15, 1929, she was the child of Roy and Marion Martineau and had one brother, Daniel, and five sisters, Patricia, Joan, Diane, Louise and Rebecca.
She met her future husband, Alexander R Baldwin Jr., of Brooklyn, New York, while both attended Syracuse University.
In 1954, Alec, as the father was also called, moved the family to Long Island where he taught history and coached football and riflery at Massapequa High School until his death, at age 55, in 1983
Another chapter was started some years later in cooperation with SUNY Upstate University. The combined efforts have raised millions of dollars for the cause.
Her son Alec stated, “My mother taught me about second acts. And third ones, too. She spent the last 25 years of her life as a fighter and a champion for the cause to which she devoted so much energy. We are all enormously proud of her accomplishments. “In addition to her six children, Carol has 25 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren.
