Former first lady Rosalynn Carter died with her family by her side at her home in Plains, Georgia, on Sunday, according to a statement by The Carter Center. She was 96.

The wife of the 39th president of the United States died after she was admitted to hospice care on Friday.

"Rosalynn was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished," President Jimmy Carter said. "She gave me wise guidance and encouragement when I needed it. As long as Rosalynn was in the world, I always knew somebody loved and supported me."

She is survived by her husband, her four children, 11 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.

Nice she lived long enough to see that her husband wasn’t the worst President ever.

Agreed. Also, Jimmy won’t last through the year I suspect. RIP.

“”Rosalynn was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished,”

Did she help you shaft the Shah of Iran and then endorse the mullahs takeover setting the stage for today’s Iran nightmare? Huh Jimmy? Nice going and thanks a rot.

My paternal grandfather died a week after my grandmother died. Broken heart. It’s real.

Carter was a good person, but a lousy president. He was indecisive and not up to the job. Biden is totally incompetent.

She is survived by her husband, her four children, 11 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.

And a few cases of Billy Beer... 🤓

Sorry, but prayers for Jimmy (who is NOT the worst president now) and the Carter family.
