As customary with former presidents, Jimmy Carter's funeral has brought a who's who list of national leaders to the National Cathedral in Washington who came to honor to the 39th commander-in-chief on Thursday.

Former President Barack Obama attended Jimmy Carter’s state funeral on Thursday without his wife, Michelle Obama, although a spokeswoman for the former first lady said she sent her condolences to the Carter family.

Michelle Obama missed Jimmy Carter’s funeral because she had a scheduling conflict, according to a report. A person familiar the former first lady’s schedule told Politico that she is home in Hawaii instead of paying her respects to the former president at Washington National Cathedral in D.
