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.”
“My mom Marian Robinson was my rock, always there for whatever I needed. She was the same steady backstop for our entire family, and we are heartbroken to share she passed away today,” Michelle posted on X.
