The former president had entered hospice care last year after being diagnosed with cancer, so while death is always hard for a family, this was not a surprise. His son Chip Carter gave a touching statement on behalf of the family, saying, "...my father was a hero not only to me but to everyone who believes in peace, human rights, and unselfish love.

My brothers, sister, and I shared him with the rest of the world through these common beliefs." The world is our family because of the way he brought people together. And we thank you for honoring his memory by continuing to live these shared beliefs. So really stressing the former president's faith and humanitarian work there. Right, and he won a Nobel Prize for that work. Tell us about that.

He and his wife, Rosalind, really became the faces of Habitat for Humanity. That's the charity that builds homes for the poor, and not just in the United States, but all over the world. For that work, he was awarded a Nobel Prize in 2002, and that really became more of his legacy than his single term in office.

which was marked by major setbacks, including the Iranian hostage crisis, a cratering economy, and what's been infamously described as a general malaise that defined the mood of the country.

Yeah, he's often described as a peanut farmer turned president, and that's certainly true. He grew up on a farm that famously had no electricity or indoor plumbing. Carter went on to serve in the Navy and then as governor of Georgia and ended up riding an anti-Republican wave after the Watergate scandal straight to the White House.

But in the end, the economic woes and foreign policy failures under his presidency created a wave of their own in the form of Ronald Reagan and his Reagan Revolution. Reagan's massively successful presidency ended up drawing a stark contrast with Carter's widely criticized term. But again, Carter did not go quietly into that good night.
