Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States and one-time peanut farmer who was married to his wife Rosalynn for 77 years, died Sunday. Carter was remembered on Sunday by President Biden, former President and First Lady Bill and Hillary Clinton who wrote that Carter “worked tirelessly for a better, fairer world,” as well as former presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush.
Barack and Michelle Obama hailed Carter for his “decency” and how he “believed some things were more important than reelection — things like integrity, respect, and compassion. Because Jimmy Carter believed, as deeply as he believed anything, that we are all created in God’s image.”
