SAD DEPARTURE

-

The passing of longest reigning monarch of Great Britain Elizabeth II and world’s most popular Queen, evokes sorrows.

People of Great Britain and around the globe feel that with her sad departure the beauty and brilliant light of Buckingham palace permanentl­y diminished. We share our sincere prayers and deepest condolence­s with the Royal family, and Britain people. Queen Elizabeth was truly incredible lady and a dedicated servant to the nation. Millions of hearts touched by Her Majesty’s loyal service to her people reciprocat­ed their loyalty to her, — more than seven decades.

Queenhasac­harmandcha­rismawhost­eadfast loyalty, service and humility that helped to make a sense of who we are in this world.

In this modern glitering era, she never sought for the celebrity status that our new generation now fetishizes. Until the end she preferred to remain a very calm, polite and reticent and undemonstr­ative individual. A unique and enduring humanity.

When interact with others, she always personifie­d the moral values of courtesy and decency that are too oten these days ignored as an old fashioned.

In spite of facing number of odd and obstacles she provided conducive support to preserve unity. She broke many records as monarch becoming an enduring symbol of the Britain over which she reigned.

Queen Elizabeth II’S image is also featured on millions of banknotes and coins across the globe. Her likeness also appears on currency in Commonweal­th countries such as Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Eastern Caribbean.

Her portrait has graced the currencies of 33 different countries, more than that of any other individual which prove that Queen is revered and recognised not only by Great Britain but worldwide.

Her legacy is valuable for the survival of monarchy in an era of rapid change. Whether you’re a royalist or not Queen Elizabeth II will be dearly missed and remains deeper in multitude hearts. Hanif A. Patel,
