Dorothy Rodham, mother of Hillary Rodham Clinton |
Dorothy Rodham, who is the mother of US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had passed away early Tuesday that is this morning after her health condition turned for the worse. Dorothy, who was born in Chicago on June 4, 1919, has died shortly after midnight on Tuesday and was surrounded by her family, the family said in a short statement. This made chief US diplomat to cancel the foreign travel plans.
Her story was a quintessentially American one, largely because she wrote it herself – “she, a generous character and who overcame abandonment and hardship as a young girl to become the remarkable woman she was a warm and strong woman and also an intellectual and she is a woman who told a great joke and always got the joke. She was an extraordinary friend and most of all a loving wife, mother and grandmother.”

Clinton was preparing to travel to conferences in London and Istanbul late Tuesday when the State Department announced she had canceled the trip due to her mother’s illness. And their family planned a private celebration of Dorothy Rodham’s life and asked that instead of sending flowers anyone who would want to do so, send donations in Dorothy’s memory to the George Washington Hospital, the Heifer Project that seeks to end world hunger or to charities for neglected and mistreated children.
It’s not that Dorothy Rodham has generous character her whole has the same character to help the needy. It’s great, hats off. Dorothy Rodham is one of the most accomplished women in U.S. history. Dorothy Rodham was known among family friends for her sense of humor and curiosity and she was close to her grand children, especially Chelsea Clinton.
Dorothy Rodham never worked outside the home, raising three children in the suburban enclave of Park Ridge, I11., under the watchful eye of her husband, a conservative Republican who owned a drapery-making business. It is said that the funeral will be private.
