Thank you for your honor, integrity and commitment to our country while serving in the U.S. Navy and as the 39th POTUS. As your fellow Believer, my greatest memory of you will be the loyalty, devotion, and everlasting love you had to the Word of God from your Sunday school lessons, to your charitable works, to your defense of human rights and so on. You were indeed a good and faithful servant.

My sincere condolences & appreciation for the Carter family. All of you honored President Jimmy Carter & Rosalynn throughout his presidency & always in their post-presidential years. He was the 1st President I voted for & believe he left an unmatched legacy. His genius in all foreign affairs & also in U.S. domestic policies focusing on human rights in a peaceful world. He prioritized our nation's safety while working with Congress to pass legislation for economic growth while developing an environmental vision for our future. The families of the released prisoners will always keep his patient & cautious conflict resolution skills in memory as they continue embracing their lives together.
Rosalynn was his loving lifetime partner with family & during his presidency prioritizing needs of America & beyond. Her lifetime commitment with mental health is a most needed/appreciated legacy.
Their accomplishments (Nobel Peace Prize, etc.) & service following his term in Washington will be unequaled in U.S. post-presidential history. Your family has been blessed & I trust you'll honor their legacy. Sharing love from Tx!

I met President Carter at his first book signing in Minneapolis. It was a bitter cold night and we took our two young daughters out on a cold snowy night to attend the book signing. We waited for my husband to have his book signed. He was at the front of the
Line! President Carter spoke to him and looked directly at our toddler daughters. He smiled and waved at them and they waved back! Friends for a moment and forever! As adults we volunteered at Habitat and helped to build a few homes! What a lovely experience and Carter friends forever. Rest in peace and thank you for leading us as an example of how we can easily help others. Thank you.
