Deceased: President Obama’s illegal alien half-aunt Zeituni Onyango

61 is young to check out anymore. I wonder if Obama will attend the funeral. I bet he won't. 

Via CBS News:

President Obama’s half-aunt, Zeituni Onyango, died in Boston last night, according to the law firm that represented her during her asylum case in Boston’s immigration court.

Onyango, who was 61, died in her sleep after taking ill in January. She was the half-sister of Mr. Obama’s late father, Barack Obama Sr.

She first came into the public eye in 2008 when reporters discovered she was living illegally in South Boston. At the time, then-Sen. Obama said he had no knowledge of her status. She had emigrated from Kenya in 2000, seeking political asylum, but her request was denied in 2004. She would later tell CBS Boston that she couldn’t afford to leave the U.S. when her asylum request was denied. She lived in a homeless shelter for two years before being assigned public housing.

Immigration attorney Margaret Wong later helped her win her asylum case in Boston’s immigration court, which she won in 2010. She later received a green card.
