Former US president to be honoured with state funeral and national day of mourning
The Guardian
|January 01, 2025
Jimmy Carter, the former US president who died aged 100 on Sunday, will be honoured with a state funeral before being laid to rest in his home town of Plains, Georgia, next to his wife, Rosalynn.
The proceedings to honour the 39th US president will start on Saturday, when a motorcade accompanying Carter's remains will travel through Plains to his boyhood home. The procession will briefly pause in front of his family's farm.
From there it will travel to Atlanta, where the motorcade will stop at the state capitol for a moment of silence led by Georgia political leaders in honour of his time as a state senator and governor. His remains will then be transported to the Carter Center, the nonprofit organisation he founded after leaving Washington, where he will lie in repose until the morning of 7 January.
From there, his remains will be brought to Washington, where he will lie in state at the US Capitol.
