Obama Family’s Sad Announcement

Marian Robinson, Michelle Obama’s mother, passed away at 86. A key figure in the Obama family, she moved from Chicago to the White House in 2009 to help raise her granddaughters, Malia and Sasha, during Barack Obama’s presidency. Known as “the first grandmother,” she kept a low profile, focusing on family and normalcy. The Obamas called her “our rock,” praising her humor, warmth, and love. Born in 1937, she raised two children, lost her husband in 1991, and stayed modest, even doing her own laundry at the White House. Michelle honored her by naming a museum exhibit after her, noting her profound influence. President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden also paid tribute to her loving, down-to-earth nature.
