Jimmy Carter lies in state as Washington begins its commemoration
Briefly

Clara Sachs, a Marylander, remembered Carter as 'a president with such strong principles and humility,' emphasizing his service to the people after the Watergate scandal.
Carter's return to the Capitol for a final farewell was marked by a military procession that intentionally mirrored his original walk into the White House over four decades ago.
The casket arrived in D.C. in a horse-drawn caisson, symbolizing the deep respect and admiration for a president who embodied common-folk values during his term.
Jimmy Carter, who died at the age of 100, planned much of his own funeral, showcasing a legacy of humility and care for the American public.
