Jimmy Carter Memorial Services at the Washington National Cathedral
Four hours all told, the video can be skipped over, rolled back, etc, to view specific parts. Of particular note are the eulogies by Carter’s grandson Jason, Gerald Ford’s son Stephen, Mondale’s son, and the Reverend Andrew Young, former ambassador to the UN. And then there was the main eulogy by President Carter’s longtime friend, President Biden.

Intended? Someone was Missing from this Memorial Photo
In this 8-min. video, Brian Tyler Cohen notes that the angle of this official photo posted by the Carter Center after the service in DC omitted some of the attendees. Intentionally? That’s left to speculation for now. In any case, the late John McCain’s family very likely approve of the choice.
