Marian Robinson, affectionately known as the "first grandma," passed away at the age of 86, leaving behind a legacy of love and support for her family, particularly during the historic presidency of Barack Obama. Born in 1937 on Chicago's South Side, Robinson played an integral role in caring for her granddaughters, Malia and Sasha Obama, during their upbringing in the White House.
Her presence provided stability and comfort to the Obama family, with her unwavering support serving as a pillar of strength throughout their time in the spotlight. Despite the glamour of the White House, Robinson remained grounded, often preferring the quiet comfort of her own space over the glitz and glamor of high-profile events.
Robinson's journey was marked by resilience and perseverance, having witnessed firsthand the challenges of race relations in America. Despite facing adversity, she remained steadfast in her commitment to her family and community.
