I am waiting for someone to start the countdown for Jimmy Carter making into 2025. I'm not going to start it .... eleven days is too far away.

I think the days of Hillary hitting him in the head with a cast iron skillet are over.

I saw him on stage, I believe is was "Death of a Salesman", outstanding.

This was from April 2023: seemed doomed then. https://okmagazine.com/p/brave-last-days-john-lennon-widow-yoko-ono-wheelchair-illness/

It contributed to all of us still being alive; that was still heavy Cold War years.

Yes, just after WWII Jimmy did serve as a nuclear engineer on submarines. He led the maintenance crew in shutting down a partial meltdown of a nuclear reactor including personally going to the reactor to do the work to shut down the reactor. Work on the reactor was limited to 90-second shifts by all involved due to the radiation levels. (Dec 12, 1952)

Lost one that could have made the list, giving her an honorable mention at 106 Dorothy Carpano Obituary Obituary published on Legacy.com by Tasker Funeral Home - Dover on Jul. 2, 2024. Dover – Dorothy Carpano, 106, of Dover, New Hampshire passed away peacefully on Friday, June 28 at Bellamy Fields surrounded by her loving family. She was born February 5, 1918, in Portsmouth, New Hampshire to Arthur and Martha (Clough) Joy. Dorothy certainly had a zest life. She was always upbeat and no matter the location she and her husband of over 77 years, Vincent and two children called home, she made life-long friends and connections that lasted through her long and glorious life. An avid reader, bridge player and conversationalist, Dorothy spent her life making a good home for her family. She is predeceased by her husband of over 77 years, Vincent Carpano; siblings Lawrence Joy, Vilda Reikert, Roscoe Joy, Gladys Caswell, Roland Joy, Alden Joy and Robert Joy. Survivors include son Guy Carpano and his wife Lynn of Dover, Nancy Sugarman of California; grandchildren Susan Livingston and Brett Lovejoy. Many nieces and nephews, too many to name, but Dorothy will be missed by all that knew her and loved her.

Watch for an AI generated image where Biden's face is placed on that photo of Carter at Roselyn's funeral. Trump would use it and deny it was from his team.

During the total solar eclipse those who honored the "Heaven's Gate" cult who "went to the visiting comet" in 1997 may do the same.

It's a bit early to put her on a death list.

Depends if he has dementia (we don't know). My wife's parents had it (her father for 10-years). They stayed in the same room .. when her mother died (in the 4th year of dementia) her father said "Oh, really? That's too bad" .. he had no clue, even after rolling his chair next to her laying in bed (dead). Totally clueless .. and 6-7 years later he died.

there have been over 350 postings about Carter in the past month, when he does die, will anyone really here really notice?

I posted this somewhere a week or so ago, but in case you missed it, here he is in late November, 2023 at his wife's memorial service.

here is a photo of Jimmy Carter from late November https://www.reuters.com/world/us/jimmy-carter-makes-rare-public-appearance-his-wifes-memorial-2023-11-28/

Quite a few people near 100 or over this past month or two that I would put way ahead of those two. But I appreciate your list.

Most of the States in the USA, when a Senator resigns or dies in office, have the replacement named by the Governor. KY changed the rules for their state. The Democratic Governor can not name the replacement; therefore, the replacement (presuming Mitch does not serve out his term) will be Republican. Why does this matter? The party that holds the majority (and the US Senate is without going into the detail re: the independents) are essentially Democratic by one seat. The Majority vs the Minority is a huge deal. HUGE. (corrected my earlier error re: the majority party)

Dick van Dyke, one more trip over that sofa and then I'll be it.

it is possible his name was added to the passenger list to send a message and he could still be living
