President Obama falters climbing Air Force One steps – again ! The clip quickly spreads on social media, sparking reactions everywhere
The Obama family suffered the loss of Marian Robinson, the mother of Michelle Obama. Robinson, who lived in the White House during her son-in-law’s presidency and brought “normality” into the lives of her granddaughters, Sasha and Malia, died aged 86. Her family said in a statement that she died “peacefully.” “As a sister, aunt, cousin, neighbor, and friend to so many,
she was beloved beyond words by countless others whose lives were improved by her presence,” the statement from the Obamas and the Robinsons said.
“She passed peacefully this morning, and right now, none of us are quite sure how exactly we’ll move on without her.” The former first lady paid tribute to the woman she called “her rock.”
The Bidens also shared their deepest condolences. “We knew Mrs. Marian Robinson as a devoted mother and grandmother with a fierce and unconditional love of her family. With the blessing of friendship, we felt that love ourselves – with every quiet smile or warm embrace she shared with us,” Joe and Jill posted. Marian Robinson was born Marian Lois Shields in 1937 in Chicago’s South Side. She married Fraser Robinson and the couple welcomed two children together, Michelle and Craig. Fraser passed away in 1991 after a long battle with multiple sclerosis.
