The Carter and Ford kids look so much like their parents as well.
This is a very moving funeral. My parents were just a bit older than President Carter. They've been dead for many years. Last year the last of the aunts and uncles passed away at the age of 97--she was a darling person. I was blessed with wonderful aunts and uncles. With Jimmy Carter's death, it really feels like the passing of the torch and a turning point for America.
