It was a whirlwind week for Grammy-winning Christian rapper TobyMac. He saw his oldest son, 21-year-old Truett Foster McKeehan, perform live in Franklin, Tennessee, on Oct. 17, 2019, which was “nothing short of electric,” as the father told The Tennessean.
That was the last time TobyMac would ever see his son. The next day, he left for Canada for his own show and heard the tragic news that his son had passed away from cardiac arrest on Oct. 23, 2019. Cutting his tour short to fly back home, this grieving father struggled to reconcile his oldest son’s death with his faith.
