Former first lady Rosalynn Carter’s grandson fondly remembered her as a public servant, fierce advocate for multiple causes and a woman who was “like everyone else’s grandma” during her memorial service in Georgia on Tuesday.
Jason Carter delivered one of many tributes to his late grandmother, eliciting laughter regularly during some of the lighter moments in the day’s proceedings, including when he acknowledged each of the living first ladies in the audience.
“Secretary Clinton, Mrs. Bush. Mrs. Obama, Mrs. Trump and Dr. Biden, thank you all for coming and acknowledging this remarkable sisterhood that you share with my grandmother. And thank you all for your leadership that you provided for our country and the world,” Carter said.
