All former first ladies - Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush, Michelle Obama, and Melania Trump - will attend the invitation-only tribute service for Rosalynn Carter in Atlanta on Tuesday, the Carter Center announced.

President Joe Biden and Mrs. Jill Biden will be in attendance, as well as former President Bill Clinton, Vice-President Kamala Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff.

The Trumps paid tribute to Rosalynn Carter's work on humantarian and mental health issues when she died on November 19.

Both Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter had attended Donald Trump's presidential inauguration in 2017.

Former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Donald Trump were not on the guest list that the Carter Center released.

Mrs. Carter died at the age of 96 at her home in Plains, Georgia along side her husband of 77 years. Former President Jimmy Carter is 99 years of age.

Although President Carter has been in hospice at home for months, he will travel to Atlanta on Tuesday to attend his wife's official memorial.

Former and current U.S. Secret Service agents carried Mrs. Carter's casket and walked alongside the hearse motorcade carrying her body on Monday as it departed the Rosalynn Carter Health and Human Sciences Complex at Georgia Southwestern State University for Atlanta, where she will lay in repose at the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library.

The former first lady's private funeral will be held Wednesday at the Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains followed by an internment at the family's residence.

Rosalynn's death came days after she entered at-home hospice care.

The Carter Center announced in February that former president Carter entered hospice care at home after deciding to decline additional medical intervention.

Rosalynn is survived by her husband, their four children, 11 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
