Former President Jimmy Carter's casket is being transferred Tuesday to Washington, D.C., for the next phase of his state funeral.
Carter has been lying in repose in Atlanta, as part of six days of observances that began Saturday with a service at his boyhood home in Plains, Georgia.
"This is somebody from a small town in south Georgia who was a peanut farmer who ultimately became the president of the United States," said Carter's grandson, Jason Carter, at the Plains service on Saturday. "It's a pretty remarkable American story."
