Indeed…the world lost a living piece of history.

 

[Brian]

My most sincere prayers are with the British people, the Commonwealth nations, and most certainly Her Majesty's family, friends and staff.

God save the King.

Unbelievable…she was 25 when she started…

Prince William is 40.

Had 15 prime ministers, met 14 U.S. presidents…7 popes…couple of Dalai Lamas…

Stalin, Hirohito, Gandhi, every Israeli prime minister, Einstein, Picasso, Sir Edmund Hillary, Neil Armstrong…artists and pioneers from around the world…

Really amazing.

Something about the name “Queen Elizabeth” makes one extraordinary…

Perhaps most surreal is seeing the Palace's statement:



"The King"... Though death is inevitable, it is simply surreal to read in such a manner.

"The King"

Though death is inevitable, it is simply surreal to read in such a manner.

…he’s only been waiting to say that for 73 years

haven’t been to England yet, but it’s on our bucket list. R.I.P. queen elizabeth. a true loss for the world.

 

[Californian Elitist]

Rest well, fellow Taurus Queen.

I agree that it feels very surreal to see a headline about the passing of the Queen. It seems archaic, but it’s not.

The next few weeks should be interesting.

The last respected head of state. I can't image having one job for 70 years but the things she saw throughout her life..... Fitting it's raining in the interview I'm watching. Condolences to my adopted homeland.

Yes. So sorry for the loss @wdwmagic (and other UK forum members) Lovely tribute at the top of the forum.
This site and these forums are 'made in England' and I am so thankful for them!

My condolences to all who are mourning this great loss.

Canada mourns alongside the UK, and fellow commonwealth nations.

Although not unexpected, still a great shock. What a historic reign.

 

[rshell68]

Though this is very sad for ALL involved she is reunited with her Phillip. Very sorry also that it happened so close to Harry's birthday.

I’m absolutely devastated tonight. Heartbroken

It’s actually feels like loosing a family member.

Never had anyone ever before devoted their life so much to the UK and the commonwealth. A woman of true class and grace
