i was so struck seeing jimmy carter wheeled in and seeing him there to say good-bye to the love of his life. well, and jimmy carter s been trying to stay alive to take care of her. to be a caretaker. when you have dementia, you forget things and he s been fighting for his own life, really trying to outlive her trying to take care of her. he s greatly diminished. i always hoped he would make it to his 100th birthday, which would be october 21st, 2024. it s going to be hard living without her. he can barely remember his life when she wasn t at his side. what did you make of the tributes pouring in today and just the memories from her loved ones? you know, they used to have the nickname, the steel magnolia. i got to know her quite well and didn t know the steely side. she was very protective of their family and legacy, but she was a real community spirited person. it does come out of her christian faith. she was the ultimate good samaritan. but her love of people and life
