"She was the cornerstone of our family, and a woman of extraordinary accomplishment, strength, and humility."       Dunham helped raise Obama from the age of 10 while his mother was working in Indonesia, and Obama took an emotional 22-hour trip to Hawaii to visit her on October 23 and 24.</blockquote>
