The funeral of Jimmy Carter will unite all five current presidents in Washington, D.C.

The late President Carter's supporters and friends will gather at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. for his funeral on Thursday.

President Biden declared Thursday a National Day of Mourning for the 38th president, who died Dec. 29 at the age of 100. The service, scheduled to begin at 11 a.m., honors his life and contributions.

The five former presidents, including President Biden, will reunite for an event.

Biden will deliver the eulogy.

Along with their respective counterparts, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., are also expected to attend the meeting.

On January 4th, a motorcade transported Carter's body through his hometown of Plains, Georgia, before arriving at the Carter Presidential Center in Atlanta, where family and friends paid their respects.

From Tuesday evening through early Thursday, the public could pay respects to Carter at the Carter Center and the Capitol.

The Carter family will have a private ceremony at Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains after the D.C. service, followed by a procession through the town where supporters are invited to line the streets for the motorcade. He will then be buried on his property next to his late wife, Rosalynn, who passed away in 2023.

In 1976, the former governor of Georgia, Carter, won the presidency. He was motivated by his strong Christian beliefs and aimed to restore public trust in government following the Watergate and Vietnam scandals. However, after four years in office, Carter faced challenges such as high inflation and unemployment, which ultimately led to his defeat in the 1980 election by Ronald Reagan.

As president, Carter established diplomatic relations with China and negotiated a nuclear limitation treaty with the Soviet Union. He also led conservation efforts, demonstrating his love of nature, which he had cultivated as a young farmer in Plains.

Carter spent the remainder of his life in the modest ranch house he constructed with his wife in 1961, constructing homes with Habitat for Humanity and occasionally returning to foreign policy, which sometimes strained his relationship with the presidents' club.

He made a living primarily through writing books, penning a total of 32, yet unlike other presidents, he didn't receive seven-figure speaking fees or take cushy board positions.

In his leisure time, Carter, a devout individual who served as a deacon at the Maranatha Baptist Church of Plains, took pleasure in fishing, jogging, and crafting wood.

Carter is survived by his four children, 11 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
