ATLANTA — In the early hours after Carter's death was announced, a steady stream of television news cameras and photographers shuffled onto the lawn outside of The Carter Presidential Center in Atlanta, accompanied by a constant hum of Atlanta traffic and the occasional visit from locals seeking to pay their respects.
Someone dropped off flowers, a container of peanuts and peaches — a nod to one of Carter's monikers as the "Peanut Farmer From Plains." The Carter Center will release more details about services for the late president in the coming days, including opportunities for well-wishers to visit his presidential library site just east of Atlanta's downtown.
