Michelle Obama also made a tribute to her own father, Fraser Robinson III, who passed away in 1991.
"It's almost #FathersDay, so I'm thinking a lot about my dad: his baritone voice, his laugh that filled up the room, the way he always knew how to set the right mood by spinning up the perfect record," she said in an Instagram post on Saturday. "My father gave great advice, taught me the value of hard work, encouraged me to ask questions, and always gave me the space to do so. I always thought he was so cool – just look at this photo!"
Robinson worked in a Chicago water filtration plant and instilled the importance of hard work in his daughter, according to TODAY.
In a 2018 Father's Day post, Michelle Obama said, "My father, Fraser Robinson, taught me to work hard, laugh often, and keep my word. Every day, I see @barackobama instilling those same values in our girls."
