The mom-of-one noted that she looked up to supreme court justice when she was a child while beckoning on citizens to honor and remember her as due. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, also known as the Notorious R.B.G, passed on last week after battling metastatic cancer.

Ginsburg was the second woman appointed to the supreme court, and her years as a litigator were nothing short of outstanding. The veteran justice died at the age of 87.

Ginsburg was appointed to her Supreme court position in 1993 by the then-president Bill Clinton, and now that she is late, her position is open for a successor.

However, there seems to be a bone of contention regarding Ginsburg's wishes to be replaced when a new president was elected. Presently, President Donald Trump's nominee is gearing for the voting exercise on the floor of the United States Senate.
