Jimmy Carter—the 39th president of the United States, who died on Dec. 29 at 100—was laid to rest at the Georgia home he shared with wife Rosalynn Carter.

While former president Jimmy Carter certainly left his mark on America as the 39th president of the United States, one of his biggest legacies transcends the work of his presidential administration: his 77-year marriage to Rosalynn Carter.

Jimmy Carter told his grandson that he was "ready" to see his late wife in the weeks leading up to his death. The former POTUS passed away at 100 years old on Sunday, December 29, following his battle with cancer — just over one year after Rosalynn Carter died in November 2023.
