Most took the time to praise the first family for being role models.
One last time, as you teach us how to say goodbye, for being the role model for my children to look up to for 8 yrs. @POTUS #ThanksObamas
ThanksObamas for always remaining kind & respectful in the face of adversity, & for being the role models Americans truly need ?
Michelle was strong, dynamic, positive, elegant, confident, and more. Truly a role model for me and so many other women. #ThanksObamas https://t.co/VjYVmEbQ4g
