Sarah will be remembered for defending her grandson, Barrack Obama during the U.S. presidential campaign. She protested attempts to portray Obama as a foreigner to the United States or as a Muslim, saying that while Obama's grandfather had been a Muslim children have different religions from their parents.
May she rest in peace.
