The Carter Center announced Saturday that the 39th president of the United States decided to receive hospice care instead of “additional medical intervention” after a series of recent hospital stays. The 98-year-old and oldest living president will spend the rest of his days in Plains, Georgia alongside Rosalynn, his wife of more than 70 years. Carter’s grandson tweeted that the Carters are “at peace and – as always – their home is full of love.”

#JimmyCarter #Hospice #NightlyNews
I hope the republicans forgive me but he is the only politician that put actions to his words. Homes for humanity was a very worthy cause. May the lord find a special spot for you Jimmy in heaven. To know you sat in the basement of the White House and read every word to any bill you were to sign was admirable. Sure no one does now .
GODSPEED MR. CARTER !! ¿D
Prayers out to Mr Carter & his entire family 🙏🙏🙏
God bless your family and your the best president of all time
A life well lived. God bless you and your loved ones.
Indeed to him
Thank you for all you did for America. Love you!
Love you Mr Jimmy Carter! Your one of a kind!
I could be from any camp Mr President Jimmy. I just prayed for you to our Lord Jesus. This is the second time I have ever done this, and the last to be sure. God Speed
May he pass with no pain.
😢 President Carter is one of the best presidents.
The last president who I believe really cares about the people of this country ❤😢
I remember them walking down the street to the White House on his Inaugeration. A kind, humble man.
God bless you Mr President. You’ve done so much for so many. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family. ❤🙏
🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is the terrible news I’ve been dreading for a while. Even though I was only 11-years-old and in the 6th Grade when he was President, I will never forget this Georgia peanut farmer. President Carter was a staunch supporter of Civil Rights, before and after his presidency!
GOD BLESS JIMMY CARTER. ❤🤍💙 U . S . A . ❤🤍💙 AMERICAN HERO 💯
My friend left her entire inheritance to hospice for being so wonderful to her dying mother she was grateful for everything.they even took care of her God bless these Angela.
Because hes a man of God and he knows God is in him and he stands in grace and so does his wife and he knows he’ll see her again blessing President Connor thank you, Mrs. Carter thank you
God bless President Carter.
Easily the most devote Christian ever to hold that office.
Not one personal scandal marked his life or marriage.
Jimmy Carter…. one of the best humans to ever live.
He still sounds good at his age. May God be at his side at all times
Thank you President Carter for all that you’ve done to help this country, thank you for bringing the hostages home from Iran, you were one of America’s greatest Presidents, you always remained humble but you are a giant among men! From Ms Diana LaFleur Oakland CA may God bless you and keep you in his care!
Well Jimmy and HMQE2 will b at peace😿😿❤🤍💙💛
This man is one of the best of humanity.
He was a great President . Americans did him wrong when he was in office .
Now you know .
God’s Blessings to you President Carter 🙏🏽
A much better president than the guy who came after him.
The man is nearly 100. Perhaps he decided to let nature run its course. He lead a full life in the path of righteous, helping others as he did during his presidency. He made it possible for those stuck in poverty, 2 jobs to support a family as a single parent to expand one’s education and working skills against poverty. The government recouped its investment in the poor by turning them into higher wage earners who paid higher taxes. The CETA program under Carter needs to be reinstated. He turned my life around and now my son has 3 post grad degrees, who graduated as a Phi Kappa Phi, which included a JD degree. Jimmy Carter made this possible.
❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I was born during the Carter administration. The early 1980s were magical due to President Jimmy Carter’s emphasis on family & improving Native American lives.
Wow man, this is really sad. We love this man, a real leader, a real president. I myself am currently fighting cancer and I know exactly what his family is going through. God Bless you and your family, Peanut man! 🙏🏻❤️
He speaks more clearly and longer than our current president. God bless him
What a special gift of love for his wife n family. He was a great president and never was afraid of working with his hands. Thank You President Carter.
God bless you
Our prayers to Jimmy Carter. We still remember your venue to Nepal and Everest area. Rest and keep care
90?. Drop dead already
Joey needs it too.
I am 100% Republican, and I have the utmost respect for President Carter. His intelligence and integrity are truly admirable.
98… take a break. God Bless!
OH YEAH NBC IS THE SEPTIC TANK OF NEWS……THIS SUMMER AT TRIBUNALS YOU CAN FILM YOURSELF BEING HANGED…..SYS
Remember God loves you♥️♥️!
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please repent, change your life around and live for Him.
He is coming back soon🥳🥳……..

Such a fine Godly man is our Former President Jimmy Carter. Because I know of his deep Christian spirituality, I believe that he surely is at peace at the end of his life’s journey, and nearly at the beginning of his Heavenly reward! 🕊💜🕊
As boat people, I am very grateful of Mr. President Carter.

He gave away the Panama Canal, he’ll forever be remembered as a Traitor & a Weakling
The best ex-president we’ve ever had.
Blessings and love to you Sir….America has been blessed with your presence.
Such dignity; a humanitarian soldier. We are all so grateful and with you in our thoughts.
God bless……..
There is a special place in Heaven for that “genuine” Christian, former President Jimmy Carter.
Well he was a nobody anyway. He hated Jews but relied on Jews to help his medical care.
JIMMY CARTER STAY ALIVE LONG ENOUGH TO HAVE YOUR TRIBUNAL THIS SUMMER……TRAITOR AND OATH BREAKER….
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾prayer President Carter🙏🏾🙏🏾
He was one of my favorite president. Had we followed his environmental suggestions, we’d be all on electric cars, off oil dependency, and avoid wars. But NO, we had to elect REPUBLICAN presidents that worked more for the rich and avoid the pleads of pandemics (Aids & Covid) sufferers.
Prayers to his family. While politically he was one of the worst modern presidents, leading to a decade of republican control, I wish him and his family the best!
May the million of people’s love for President Carter reach him. Much respect and love 💘 goes to him in his trip to heaven. May his wife endure to tell their story.
The least corrupt president in American history so sad 😞
Sending good thoughts, prayers and well wishes to you Mr. President and Mrs. Carter and family!
My Favorite President & was not even old enough to vote.
To his Loved ones,
Thank you for sharing your
Beloved Jimmy
with us,
respectfully!
The most honorable & human man in public service!
Wish all the Peace & am happy to know he is surrounded by Love!
I lovehim!
PRAYERS TO PRESIDENT CARTER AND HIS FAMILY .
YOU WERE AND ARE AN AMAZING PRESIDENT AND HUMANITARIAN
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, AND THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE GIVEN US AND OUR COUNTRY ♥️✝️🇺🇸🙏
“Out of the crooked timber of humanity, our beloved former President Jimmy Carter is a straight thing can ever be made”
May the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY bless him and his family and the DIVINE WILL be done according to the LORD GOD’S merciful kindness.
May his days are pain free and surrounding with love and dignity while the Lord calmly to rest ❤️💐🙏
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Haha
Donal
One of the worst sitting president in U.S. History.
Another rude and unnecessary comment. 😒
@K M Facts are offensive, I’ve heard.
@Joey Harper YOU are offensive!
@K M If you take objective facts “Offensive”, Then that’s on you.
This man is taking the end of life as honestly and bravely as he lived! This former President Jimmy Carter holds the highest esteem in my eyes! Bless him and his family…💖
Deep prayers
You were/are my FAVORITE American President !!! Sending you Well wishes Sir !! We will see you on the other side !!
I’m not a democrat, but I wish this gentleman peace and God’s blessings with a place waiting for him in Heaven.
Thankfully, you don’t need to be a democrat to wish anyone peace and God’s blessings. Politics need no mentioning.
I had the privilege of listening to mr. Carter teach Sunday school at the maranatha Baptist Church in plains Georgia many years ago and I have a picture of me and my aunt and mr. Carter altogether he was a wonderful president and a wonderful man and will be wonderful in the next life and accepted and loved just like he was in this life
At least he can rest in peace knowing Joe Biden has taken his place as the worst president ever.
Blessings and thank you President Carter for all you have worked for. Prayers for you and your family.
and Billy Carter had no idea to continue his Socialist ways from the US government, soo, Carter gave back the Canal Zone back to Panama and left Panama. just like Joe Biden left many things in Afghanistan. But promoted WAR with US federal money and Migration Socialism again, just like Carter.
A president that cared about poor people.
Jimmy Carter is and was a great president, Regan stole everything the cater set up. Nobody gave him the credit for anything. This man built homes when he could have just retired. JIMMY CATYER MAY G-Ds preptual light shine upon you for ever.
Jimmy Carter
A Great Man, him & his family were never involved in any scandals or shady behaviors like the rest of these ex-presidents:
Richard Nixon [Watergate]
Ronald Reagan [Iran Contra Affair]
George Bush Sr. [Serial Groper]
Bill Clinton [Draft Dodger, Monica Lewinsky Affair & Whitewater Scandal]
George Bush Jr. [Harken Energy Scandal]
Donald Trump [Capital Attack, Draft Dodger, Russiagate, Stormy Daniels Scandal & Tax Evader]
Joe Biden [Biden Family Investigation]
Happy Presidents Day 🇺🇸
What a truly good and kind human being ! thank you for all the good you have done ! may God of all bless you for eternity ! thank you from an American 🇺🇸🎎🇺🇸
Sending prayers
Praise God! He’s gonna see Jesus soon! He’s going home! I do believe he is born again.
Hope Jimmy Carter is Ok! 🙏🏾
Thank you all at NBC News for always reporting the news in the most elegant way possible! ❤️
Jimmy Carter was a true class act. God be with this magnificent human.
My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Carter family. My thanks to Mr. Carter for his service to our country.

Bring Back Billy Beer!
