Long Live the Queen








 After serving as Her Majesty, Queen of England for just over 70 years, Queen Elizabeth II has died at the age of 96.  

Queen Elizabeth was truly. the epitome of grace, elegance, integrity and all things good of not just a queen, but of a woman.  She was the queen for most of my mother's life and was only 5 years older than my mother.  She was my father's age.

Now, at her passing, Her oldest son, Charles, Prince of Wales, becomes King Charles the III.  His first wife, Diana, would have been queen, but died in a car accident 25 years ago.  But her oldest son, William, who  is now the Prince of Wales, will be king after his father Charles either dies, or steps aside.

But as of now, we say 'Long Live the King'.
