Messages of support and well wishes are pouring in for former President Jimmy Carter. The announcement of the 39th commander-in-chief transitioning to hospice care was made public last week.

Carter is no stranger to Birmingham. Back in 2010, he spent a few days in The Magic City.

The president and CEO of Greater Birmingham Habitat for Humanity, Charles Moore, says President Carter helped repair and build 25 homes the few days he was in town.

"I think he knew he could use his influence to make a different in the world, especially with housing. So, he aligned himself some 40 years ago with Habitat," Moore said.
