We are deeply saddened by the passing of our very special and unique Queen Elizabeth II. She was a reassuring constant for the whole of our lives and represented all things great and honourable about the United Kingdom and Commonwealth countries. The lifetime of leadership and dedicated service which she gave to us all was respected throughout the world. Our thoughts and condolences are with the Royal family as we continue to mourn the sad loss of our Platinum Queen.
