Jimmy Carter will celebrate his 99th birthday with his family on Sunday, a day earlier than planned to avoid potential disruption from a federal government shutdown. The celebration will take place in the same one-story structure where the Carters lived before he was first elected to the Georgia Senate in 1962. Carter was born in 1924 in rural Georgia, becoming the first future American president born in a hospital. His grandson Jason Carter reflects on the remarkable accomplishments of his grandparents and their commitment to their small hometown.
Mrs. Carter is reported to have dementia, but the Carters have enjoyed time with each other and their family, along with occasional visits from close friends, in recent months. Their grandson, Jason Carter, recently commented on the outpouring of love and respect for the couple's legacy.
Jimmy Carter, the longest-lived U.S. president, is in good spirits and spending time with his wife Rosalynn at home three months after entering end-of-life care. The couple is also receiving updates on The Carter Center’s humanitarian work, which they founded after leaving office. Carter is remembered for his commitment to human rights and his efforts to promote peace, and has been recognized with numerous awards, including the Nobel Peace Prize.
