Statement from Orange County Mayor Jerry L. Demings on the Passing of Former President Jimmy Carter | December 30, 2024
“It is with great sadness that I join the nation in mourning the passing of former President Jimmy Carter. President Carter’s life exemplified the highest ideals of public service, compassion, and integrity.
In 2008, my wife and I were honored to meet President Carter and his wife, Rosalynn. We found the President to be a man who, despite his many accomplishments, remained humble, kind, and deeply committed to the well-being of others.
On behalf of my family and the people of Orange County, I offer our deepest condolences to the Carter family.”
– Jerry L. Demings, Orange County Mayor
