Jimmy Carter dies at the age of 100. He died adhering to the values he grew up with among the peanut fields of Georgia: hard work, a sense of duty, faith in God, dignity, and equality. Jimmy Carter, the 39th American president who succeeded in the impossible mission of securing an agreement between Egypt and Israel in 1978 and who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2022, died at his home in Georgia. A one-term White House official, sandwiched between Republicans Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan, Democrat Carter spent the last two years of his long life at his home in Plains, protected by palliative care, after refusing more aggressive medical interventions.
