Many people in the U.S. and around the world are interested in the president, both current and former. This includes Jimmy Carter, a president who is special to many.
Jimmy Carter was the 39th President of the United States, and he recently celebrated his 100th birthday in his hometown of Plains, Georgia, with family and friends.
A video showed him being wheeled outside by an aide. He was wrapped in a blanket and wearing a blue cap. Although he looked frail, he seemed to enjoy being outside.
Along with his family, his Secret Service team was there watching over him. While they were outside, four jets flew overhead in his honor.
People online shared their thoughts about the celebration, and many were touched by the tribute to the former president.
At the Jimmy Carter National Historical Park, visitors could get a special passport stamp to mark the occasion.
Jason Carter, his oldest grandchild, spoke in an interview about how his grandfather continues to live life in his way. Even though his health has declined, he remains aware and involved.
The family is grateful that Carter is at home, surrounded by loved ones, in a place that has always brought him peace.
Other events included a special concert at the Fox Theater in Atlanta, celebrating Carter’s love of music.
Incredibly, Jimmy Carter is 100 years old, and his legacy lives on. We wish him many more happy moments.
