Later that evening at 20:40 UTC, she expressed condolences regarding the death of Dr. Dobson.

Dr. Dobson’s legacy will continue to live on through the countless lives he impacted & brought to Christ. My prayers are with his family & loved ones.” Dr. James Dobson was a prominent evangelical Christian leader known for founding Focus on the Family and advocating for traditional family values.
