Jimmy celebrated his birthday with his family The beloved president celebrated his birthday with family (his loving wife, Rosalynn, their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren) at the one-story house in Georgia, where they lived before he got into the senate in 1962. Jimmy's grandson, Jason, commented on the patriarch's down-to-earth nature despite his achievements as a globally recognized leader. "The remarkable piece to me, and I think to my family, is that while my grandparents have accomplished so much, they have remained the same sort of South Georgia couple that lives in a 600-person village where they were born," he said.

Jason, who is the president of The Carter Center founded by his grandparents in 1982, referenced their kindness through the initiative in his birthday message. "I think his time in the private sector and the work that he did at the Carter Center, really spending his life among the most marginalized and poorest people in the world and believing in their power to change their own lives and in the power of human rights for them and democracy for them, will be the biggest part of his legacy," he told ABC News.
