Former President Jimmy Carter, a Georgia peanut farmer who pledged to restore morality and truth to politics, passed away Sunday at 100 in Plains, Georgia, surrounded by his family, according to the Carter Center.

Carter, the 39th president, served from 1977 to 1981. Despite promising achievements in diplomacy, including the Camp David Accords, his presidency faced challenges such as economic turmoil and foreign policy setbacks. His term ended after losing reelection to Ronald Reagan.

Carter’s most remarkable contribution came after his presidency, with a 43-year “retirement” redefining the role of former presidents. As a humanitarian and human rights advocate, he became a “globetrotting elder statesman,” promoting democracy, resolving conflicts, and combating diseases.

He made history as the oldest living former president, surpassing George H.W. Bush in 2019. His legacy remains a blend of unfulfilled ambitions in office and tireless post-presidential service that earned global admiration.

The Carter Center highlighted his enduring commitment to peace and human dignity, cementing his place as a pioneer of humanitarian efforts.
