Funeral services for former first lady Rosalynn Carter will be next week in Plains, Georgia, the town where she and her husband of 77 years, former President Jimmy Carter, were both born.

Mrs. Carter died Sunday at 96-years-old after entering hospice care a few days earlier. The first lady had been living with dementia.

Many remember her for her fierce advocacy for mental health. But she was also an advocate for caregivers. As a teenager she herself took on a caregiving role as the eldest of four siblings after her father died. Shortly after leaving office, she established the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregiving.

Paurvi Bhatt serves on the board of the institute. Paurvi is also on the board of the Twin Cities based organization Caringbridge. She joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about Mrs. Carter’s legacy.
