Queen Elizabeth II

What an amazing lady our late Queen Elizabeth II was. She’d served our nation tirelessly with dedication and dignity. What an example she was to us all, bringing peace where she could, always a deep interest in others and moving with the times, never fazed by changing events. She had a deep Christian faith which came over so well in her Christmas Day broadcasts, and I’m sure her faith in Jesus Christ upheld her and kept her over the long years of her reign. She had a great love for her family, grandchildren and great grandchildren . I feel very honoured to have met her several times during my working life and had huge respect for her. May we try and follow her example as we go about our daily lives. She will be greatly missed.
