Others besides Queen Elizabeth died today.
RIP to all the departed.
I never really understood the fascination, and for some the obsession of the British Royals. Or any royal family. Skin bones, flesh and blood like everyone else.
Is it the wealth? Fame? Power? Some folks dreaming or fantasizing that maybe they can reach that level or be married in or befriend one of them?
Is it the same lure for some, that say, put the Kardashians (LMAO
LCD’s) on that same pedestal?

Apparently she said that Royal Barley water was also one of the reasons for her long life.

She helped millions transition to democracy and freedom with a relative stability and little interference.
I think Charles then William will continue in the same way.
I am very sad to hear this.
2 days ago she was meeting the new Prime Minister of Britain. Today she's gone. She always put her people first. Her whole life was devoted to the service of her people. She took her vows very seriously.
She was a rock.

The monarchists will miss licking her behind on the stamps.
Like Serena Williams she fell just short.
King Louis XIV retains his title as Europe's longest serving monarch (1643 - 1715) at 72 years. Elizabeth II comes in second at 70 (1952 - 2022). Of course Luigi would have fallen sooner if the French peasantry didn't rally to his cause at Malplaquet.

It should be Wilder Penfield or Terry Fox. Vincent Van Gogh was an epileptic, Dr Penfield would have saved his life.
Bang on. There will never be another monarch as likable and classy as Queen Elizabeth II. May she rest in peace.
She was the last vestige of the old England- at least the best slice of it. A remarkable public figure. And all she ever did was what was required of her with no fuss nor drama. Isn't this a lesson for us all?
Wondering if any knew her personally? Or just through the news and media. Most on this thread speak as if to seem they knew her quite well.
