Barack Obama with his grandparents Madelyn and Stanley Dunham.  Both are now deceased.

Polichicks, this is sad news... 

Barack Obama's beloved grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, died early this morning in Hawaii.  Obama learned of the news while campaigning in Florida.

Obama once described Dunham, who was affectionately known as Toot, as "the one who put off buying a new car or a new dress for herself so that I could have a better life." He added, "She poured everything she had into me."
