STATEMENT FROM THE PRESIDENT ON THE PASSING OF EUNICE KENNEDY SHRIVER
Michelle and I were deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Eunice Kennedy Shriver. Eunice was many things to many people: a mother who inspired her children to serve others; a wife who supported her husband Sargent in the Peace Corps and in politics; and a sister to her siblings, including brothers John, Robert, and Edward. But above all, she will be remembered as the founder of the Special Olympics, as a champion for people with intellectual disabilities, and as an extraordinary woman who, as much as anyone, taught our nation – and our world – that no physical or mental barrier can restrain the power of the human spirit. Her leadership greatly enriched the lives of Special Olympians throughout the world, who have experienced the pride and joy of competition and achievement thanks to her vision. Our thoughts and prayers are with Sargent; their children Robert, Maria, Timothy, Mark, and Anthony; and the entire Kennedy family.

Today the White House said that Michelle Obama’s Father was Buried at the Scandal Ridden Burr Oak Cemetery. Then a few hours later the White House Reversed It’s Story and stated that the first lady’s father was buried a few blocks away at Lincoln Cemetery
I posted a blog on the first statement.There are other who blogged this as well.
The good news is that the First Lady’s Father has not been disturbed and can rest in peace.
USA Today Reported the White House statement reversal.
“Update at 3:38 p.m. ET: Johnston, in responding to the earlier reports in which she is also quoted, said only that “there has been some confusion that has been cleared up.”
Update and correction at 3:23 p.m. ET: USA TODAY’s White House correspondent Mimi Hall quotes Johnston as saying Robinson is NOT buried at Burr Oak Cemetery, but at Lincoln Cemetery, located several blocks away.”
