Ave Elizabeth, Regina Angliae Dei Gratia

 

The young Lady that went up a tree house in Kenya a Princess so many years ago and came down a Queen has gone to her final rest.  The Queen was brought up with a sense of obligation and duty that is a relic of a bygone era.  It feels dated and out of touch by modern standards to many.  Yet she upheld her view of that to her very end.  It must have made her father and mother very proud when she presented Herself to them yesterday.  A toast to a life well-lived.  God bless and Godspeed.

In Pace Dormit, Elizabeth, Regina Angliae A Multis Dilecta!
