From Georgia to Washington, Memorials Trace Jimmy Carter’s Life

Jimmy Carter, the nation’s 39th president, will be honored in Washington by fellow presidents and world leaders. But before that, his hearse paused outside a farmhouse in Georgia, where he began his journey from humble beginnings in Plains, Ga., to political prominence and global humanitarian efforts.
The first stop on his valedictory trek was back to his roots in rural Georgia, where he was born, raised, and eventually passed away at the age of 100.
Throughout the memorial events, his legacy as a president and post-presidential advocate for democracy and disease eradication will be celebrated and discussed.
The journey began with a reflection on the places and people that shaped Jimmy Carter’s life.
Jimmy Carter’s upbringing in rural Georgia, as detailed in his memoir, highlighted the racial dynamics and challenges of the segregated South. His journey started in Americus, Ga., where his remains were honored by special agents before continuing through Plains.
The motorcade passed through Plains, where bells rang 39 times in honor of his presidential position. People from all over came to pay their respects, admiring Carter’s leadership and faith.
Retired sheriff’s deputy Robert Garland praised Carter for his dignity and respect as a leader. He described Carter as possibly the greatest president for his commitment to humanitarian work and integrity.
The motorcade continued through Atlanta, where city and state leaders paid their respects outside the Capitol. Carter’s presence in the city was remembered through his love for baseball, local hangouts, and charitable work at the Carter Center.
The day’s journey will conclude at the Carter Center in Atlanta, where a private service will be held before his repose until Tuesday. The following days will see his journey to Washington, where he will lie in state at the U.S. Capitol before returning to Plains for burial next to his wife.
