Jimmy Carter made a final trip home to Plains, to be buried near the modest house he shared with his wife Rosalynn for more than six decades.

Former President Jimmy Carter is making his final journey to his hometown of Plains, Georgia where his family will participate in a final service. He will then be buried next to his beloved wife, Rosalynn Carter. The National Funeral Service for former President Carter has ended in Washington, D.C.

Carter’s body arrived for a second, more intimate service at Maranatha Baptist Church late Thursday afternoon, a small congregation on the outskirts of Plains, Georgia, where he long taught Sunday school.
