Lindsay Lohan‘s grandfather, Richard Lohan died in New York on Thursday after a long battle with colon cancer.

Richard Lohan, 73, was the father of Lindsay’s dad Michael Lohan. Michael released an official statment to OK! magazine saying, “My father just, literally, died in my arms.”

Michael also didn’t miss the opportunity to take a dig at ex-wife Dina Lohan. “I notified all my kids and my lawyer notified Dina’s attorney. Let’s see if she has the decency and respect to bring my kids to the wake and funeral.”

He continues, “THIS will show her true colors! Thus, not even a call. But that’s par for the course with Dina! She didn’t even send a card or visit when he was sick.”

Michael later told E! News that Lindsay had reached out to him. “She sent me a message this morning. She said, ‘Now papa has found peace and maybe we can find peace in our lives, too.’ “

Yesterday Lindsay and gal-pal Samantha Ronson blogged about the discord between Lindsay and her dad. Lindsay wrote that her father knows nothing about what’s going on in her life because she has “chosen not to involve him in it.”
