My first voting experience was voting for President Jimmy Carter, in 1976. I have always had great admiration for President Carter!!!! He set the bar high, and I personally wish that others would take his example, especially in government, and world affairs. Habitat for Humanity has saved my life in many ways. Thank God for Presdent Jimmy Carter, and Mrs. Carter, they made a great union.

Carter was a great humanitarian. I remember when he won and the parallels drawn between my Louisiana family where my Great Grandfather was a peanut farmer who gave back to his community as well. Thank you for your service. Peace forever

“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

Mr. President, thank you for your leadership, for being a great humanitarian, your caring heart, work ethic, strength and exemplifying what real true love is in marriage. You made us Georgians proud! You are now our (Georgian's) guardian angel. Please continue to watch over us from heaven. I know our heavenly father said, JOB WELL DONE! Tell Rosalynn we said hello! You will be missed.

What an inspiration for living a life of service. I was a college student during his presidency and I must admit, I was a pretty unaware person. As I have since followed his retirement career the last 40 years I truly found a role model for living a good better best life. Habitat is a wonderful legacy that he leaves. I am a proud supporter of Habitat for Humanity physically and financially.

In summer of 2004 I took my high school/college age choir to Americus, Georgia, to work on a Habitat for Humanity build. We helped with construction of a community center there. And WOW was it hot!! We also did numerous concerts in the area. On Sunday we did a concert at President Carter's church and had the privilege of meeting him and Millard Fuller. What a once-in-a-lifetime occasion for all of us! We felt so honored that both of these great men would be present for us.
