Former U.K. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s spirit of leadership and empowerment lives on.

The British leader may be dead, but her 19-year-old granddaughter, Amanda, was just voted “the most likely to change the world” by her fellow classmates at the University of Richmond in Virginia, Breitbart reported.

And Miss Thatcher’s older brother, Michael, is steep in conservative political work.

He’s a practicing Christian and conservative who graduated from Texas A&M University and now works with a group with ties to the Republican Party to “educate and empower the Hispanic community with conservative values,” Breitbart reported.

The two young Thatchers are the children of Mark Thatcher, the late prime minister’s son.

The funeral for Mrs. Thatcher, who served as Britain’s head of government from 1979 to 1990 and died last Monday of a stroke at age 87, is set for Wednesday.
