CNN —The holiday season always reminds Tyler Perry of his late mother Maxine. She also died 15 years ago this month, a grief Perry said still visits him this time of year. “Grief shows up when it wants to,” he told CNN’s Anderson Cooper on this week’s episode of his “All There Is” podcast, now in its third season. It took around nine years for Perry to “turn the corner” after his mother’s death. When she first passed, he said, “it would literally take my breath away.”(From left) Maxine Perry and Tyler Perry in Los Angeles in 2006.
