| Description | Carter Expresses'Admiration' for Reagan
The Honolulu Advertiser
"This is a sad day for our country," Carter said before teaching Sunday school at Maranatha Baptist Church, in his hometown of Plains. "I probably know as well as anybody what a formidable communicator and campaigner that President Reagan was. It was because of him that I was retired from my last job." Carter, 79, told a handful of reporters gathered at the church Sunday that he would make no formal comment or answer questions after the service. His Sunday school lesson was taken from the Book of Hebrew, which he said was written to inspire and strengthen the beliefs of early Christians. He added that in his own life there have been "times of disillusionment and doubt."
Carter told about 300 people gathered for his Sunday school class that he and his wife, Rosalynn, had been close to Nancy Reagan in recent years, but did not elaborate. |
