As fellow Georgians, Mary and I join our state and country in celebrating the life and legacy of former President Jimmy Carter. A man of God who was a true statesman who faithfully served our country as President and our state as Governor. "Well done, good and faithful servant!"

@SpeakerRalston has been a steadfast friend and a great citizen legislator and leader. You can see the impact of his dedication from Blue Ridge to Valdosta and everywhere in-between. Happy we can continue to work with him on behalf of this great state.

We've been walking hand-in-hand for 50 years! Today holds many celebrations, but none more important than my 50th wedding anniversary. As I said in my speech, Mary, you're the person I've always hoped to become. I am beyond blessed! #50thanniversayjoy #truelove
