Former President Jimmy Carter, a man known for his faith and for his lifetime of helping others, received words of appreciation and comfort from President Joe Biden and a host of other federal officials over the weekend.
In a statement released Sunday afternoon and also posted on Twitter, President Joe Biden said he was praying for Carter and his wife, Rosalynn.
“To our friends Jimmy and Rosalynn and to their family — Jill and I are with you in prayer and send you our love,” Biden said in the statement. “We admire you for the strength and humility you have shown in difficult times. May you continue your journey with grace and dignity, and God grant you peace.”
