I offer my most profound and deepest sympathies to the people of the United Kingdom and the nations of the Commonweath on the lost of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the II. As an American this is about as shocking and tragic to you as the loss of Lincoln, FDR and JFK where to us. When I had heard this morning on the news that most of the royal family was headed to Balmoral Castle to be by Her side I thought that the worst was coming but hoped for the best, sadly my thought was more correct then my hope was. It will be I think for some a difficult time to morn the loss of such a figure as HRH considering how many different generations of people have known and loved her.
