President Jimmy Carter has passed away at 100. He taught us about compassion, empathy & kindness from watching him here when he was hurt & persevered to do what he loved best at Habitat For Humanity! He inspired us to be better humans. What an incredible person & gift he was. May he rest in peace.🙏💜
