Melissa Rivers on Thursday tweeted from the late comedian’s account, writing, “I finally figured out my mom’s password HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Xo Melissa.”

“It is with great sadness that I announce the death of my mother, Joan Rivers,” Melissa Rivers released via a statement at the time of the comedian’s death. “She passed peacefully at 1:17 p.m. surrounded by family and close friends.”

Melissa added at the time that she and her son, Cooper, “have found ourselves humbled by the outpouring of love, support and prayers we have received from around the world.”
