Following The Carter Center's announcement that former U.S. President Jimmy Carter passed away on Dec. 29, 2024, Georgia politicians and state leaders rallied support around the Carter family and offered their condolences. Carter's last public appearance was at his late wife Rosalynn Carter 's funeral on Nov. 29, 2023. He was also briefly seen watching a U.S. Navy flyover with F-18s and World War II planes on his 100th birthday.
President Joe Biden said, 'Today, America and the world lost an extraordinary leader, statesman and humanitarian.' 'Over six decades, we had the honor of calling Jimmy Carter a dear friend. But, what’s extraordinary about Jimmy Carter, though, is that millions of people throughout America and the world who never met him thought of him as a dear friend as well.' 'With his compassion and moral clarity, he worked to eradicate disease, forge peace, advance civil rights and human rights, promote free and fair elections, house the homeless, and always advocate for the least among us. He saved, lifted, and changed the lives of people all across the globe.' 'He was a man of great character and courage, hope and optimism. We will always cherish seeing him and Rosalynn together. The love shared between Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter is the definition of partnership and their humble leadership is the definition of patriotism.' 'We will miss them both dearly, but take solace knowing they are reunited once again and will remain forever in our hearts.' 'To the entire Carter family, we send our gratitude for sharing them with America and the world. To their staff – from the earliest days to the final ones – we have no doubt that you will continue to do the good works that carry on their legacy.' 'And to all of the young people in this nation and for anyone in search of what it means to live a life of purpose and meaning – the good life – study Jimmy Carter, a man of principle, faith, and humility.
