A motorcade with Carter's flag-draped casket is heading to his hometown of Plains and past his boyhood home on the way to Atlanta, marking the start of a poignant farewell. Families lined the route, reflecting on Carter's legacy as they gathered to pay their respects, showing how deeply he resonated with generations, including a 12-year-old who admired his humanitarian efforts and vision.
We want to pay our respects, said 12-year-old Will Porter Shelbrock, who was born more than three decades after Carter left the White House in 1981. The desire to acknowledge Carter's significance to modern society, alongside his admirable humanitarian contributions, illustrates the profound impact of his leadership that transcended generations.
