Rosalynn Carter: A Legacy of Love and Advocacy

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn Carter, who were married for 77 years, considered their relationship as their greatest achievement. Rosalynn passed away at the age of 96, leaving Jimmy without his wife for the first time since his teenage years. Jimmy described Rosalynn as his equal partner in everything he accomplished and credited their relationship as the secret to his long life. The couple's bond endured a tumultuous presidency, health challenges, and a post-presidency life marked by modest living and community service. They were known for their commitment to humanitarian causes and shared hobbies, and were often seen smiling, laughing, and holding hands.
