Former President Jimmy Carter, who passed away at age 100, will be honored with a state funeral on January 9 at the Washington National Cathedral, marking a national day of mourning. Flags will be flown at half-staff for 30 days, and events will celebrate his humanitarian legacy. The Carter family has accepted an invitation for Carter to lie in state at the US Capitol, with eulogies planned, including one by former Vice President Walter Mondale’s son. Carter’s contributions to global peace and human rights will be remembered by many leaders, including President Joe Biden.
