Work? i don t know. i ve been married all of my life. i don t know how it could have been enriched more if not nor jimmy carter. the best thing i did was marrying rosalind that is the pinnacle of my life and we had 69 years together and still together. that is the best thing that happened to me. the carters share four children together and combine 22 grand and great grandchildren. i love their love story. almost 80 years. the perfect couple. he invited her to sit in on cabinet meetings. it s amazing. the influence on his president
Age 98. he built his legacy as both president and post president. he met rosalind. she spent a lot of time at the carter s house because she was friends with the sister. and he said she was the woman is he would marry all the way back then. she says he was persistent and here they are on their wedding day, this is 1946. look at the smiles. she was by his side through his political year. here they are dancing at the inaugural ball in 1977. how has your long and vibrant marriage enriches your life and
Their lives. that s great. rosalind said she and the former president always look for common interests. jimmy and i always looking for things to do together. each person should have some space. that s really important. they got some pace over the years. they re married for 75 years. he travels a lot. they did literally everything together. there is no jimmy s story without rosalind. if you remember from the peanut ber grade, after her father died, she went out to the carter peanut farm to spend time with her friend, jimmy easters. it is one of the great love
