Amy Carter, the youngest child of former President Jimmy Carter, attended a service in Washington to honor her father.
She sat alongside her three brothers in the Capitol rotunda, where members of Congress paid respects to the late president.
The funeral procession, bringing Carter's casket via horse-drawn caisson, echoed his inaugural parade from 1977.
Amy's childhood in the White House made her a public figure, representing a political symbol for equality in education.
After years of privacy, her return marks a rare public appearance following the recent deaths of her parents.
