Watching the funeral service. The youngest of the living Presidents is the one that served first, Clinton.

The youngest living President is Obama.

Moving eulogy from Steve Ford, Gerald Ford's son, and then Ted Mondale, Walter Mondale's son reads out his father's words underlining the feeling of an age gone.

Difficult to hear some of the speeches, particularly the one currently being made by Carter's grandson and not feel that the comments, even if not intended, reflect on what Trump might do.
