Our former president Jimmy Carter tragically passed away on December 29th 2024.

Carter was diagnosed with metastatic melanoma on August 15th 2015. Due to expensive care Carter along with his doctors were able to slow the cancer significantly, allowing him to live his life to the fullest.

 Carter was born in October 1924, in Plains, Georgia. Graduating from naval academy in 1946 made him the man he was, emphasizing his discipline and political views. Shortly after graduating Carter married Rosalynn Smith and had 3 children.

Jimmy Carter didn’t stop there. After 7 years as a naval officer he became the governor of Georgia where his political story began. He preached about equality, ecology, and an efficient government which gained him plenty of attention from the media and citizens all over the country.
