Jones' 46-year-old sister Kidada shared the same b&w snap of her mother and wrote on Instagram: 'My first love. My true love. My forever love. Happy birthday, my precious mommy.'

The siblings' father - EGOT champ Quincy Jones - previously wrote that they 'still hold your mother's beautiful smile and light' and 'our collective parental love for you isn't restricted by the boundaries of any physical form.'

Peggy (born Margaret Ann) passed away, at age 72, in May 2019 following a 17-year battle with stage III colon cancer.

The Golden Globe winner - best known for Twin Peaks and The Mod Squad - graced the silver screen for the final time as Hannah in Lasse Hallström's 2017 movie, A Dog's Purpose.

Luckily, Lipton lived long enough to meet Rashida's two-year-old son Isaiah with her five-time Grammy-nominated boyfriend of five years, Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig.

Jones began filming her next movie - Sofia Coppola's drama On The Rocks - with Bill Murray just three weeks after Peggy's passing.

'This shoot came at a very difficult time for me. But being surrounded by these enormous talents was not just a career dream come true,' the Harvard University grad wrote on August 19.

'It also felt like a sort of salvation; work can be meaningful on many levels like that. So grateful to Sofia and Bill and @marlonwayans and all the other bright lights in the cast and crew.'

Both Rashida and the 49-year-old Oscar-winning screenwriter grew up in privileged showbiz families with larger-than-life fathers - the 87-year-old music mogul and filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola.

The Manhattan-set father-daughter movie - also featuring Marlon Wayans and Jenny Slate - will be released in theaters and Apple TV+ sometime in October.

Jones will also resume her role as Joya Barris in Kenya Barris' sitcom #BlackAF, which was renewed by Netflix for a second season on June 23.
