I have always had the utmost respect for President Carter. In 1990 I volunteered for Habitat for Humanity in Matamoros, Mexico, while I was pregnant with my son. It was an incredible honor to meet President Carter and be in a group photo with him. All presidents should do good works post-presidency like he did!

I had the privilege of getting to know Pres. Carter over a span of several years. From our first chance meeting on a plane flying into Atlanta in 1990 to our quarterly board meetings at the Carter Center in more recent years; every encounter with him further impressed his heartwarming qualities of humility, approachability and sense of humor deep within my heart. The world has lost a great soul.

“President Carter was a treasured friend and inspiring role model who showed the world how to put faith into action. It was one of the great privileges of my life to spend time serving with him. He was a true and tireless champion of affordable housing, social justice and human rights, and while our hearts are heavy, we are grateful for the lasting impact and legacy of service he leaves behind.”— Jonathan Reckford, Habitat’s Chief Executive Officer

Watching the funeral service brought back memories of living in America when Jimmy made his first run for President. His work alongside his wife made a huge difference in America. That was true for Habitat for Humanity in particular.

My family has always loved this cause. My father, who became a builder, saw his own Appalachian family in the people you served so humbly throughout your life. Thank you for your service, Mr President. May the efforts of you and Rosalynn continue to bear good fruits, in perpetuity.

Though I never got to meet President Carter personally, he has been one of my heroes for more than 50 years. His life was the finest example of Christian servant leadership and an inspiration for present and future generations. His example is one of the many reasons I am proud to lead a Habitat affiliate. Rest in Peace, Mr. President and thank you for your service.

President Carter was a great man and will be missed. When I was introduced to Habitat for Humanity, I found President Carter's involvement and support for Habitat for Humanity. As I participated in a few team builds and housewarmings, I appreciated President Carter's humanitarian work and vision more than anything else.

When I was a child growing up in my native country of Panama the then President Carter signed the Torrijos-Carter treaty ending deaths of Panamanians who all they asked for is sovereignty in our canal as well as respect to our people and country. Thanks President Carter for bringing peace to our country and transferring the canal to Panamanians. We, the Panamanians, will always love you. Gracias.
