Patricia Shong of Auburn died on May 18 and was laid to rest during a Friday funeral, reports CBS Boston.

Shong's obituary details the loved ones she leaves behind, including her husband and three children. It also lists her career highlights and her hobbies, which include scrap-booking, cross stitching and crocheting.

But one of the final lines in her obituary was also used to apparently declare that Tom Brady was not the one responsible the nationally debated "DeflateGate" scandal.

"She would also like us to set the record straight for her," Shong's obituary reads. "Brady is innocent!!"

Brady was suspended four games by the NFL and is currently appealing his punishment.
