70 years on the throne, 96 years old. Tina was watching the breaking news when I came in from my woodshop. The Queen always struck me as dignified without being stuck up. I have seen many examples of her breaking out of the mold to show she cares about her subjects.

I'd like to think you're right on the money with that 'Marine. Dignity.

My heart breaks for our friends across the pond. The queen was the only one I ever knew, this is truly an end to an era.

A dignified elegant lady that led Britan with grace.

My wife and I have watched the show The Crown and while it’s Hollywoodie it does give a nice history of her and her reign. I hope the show will continue. What an icon she was. My wife was just reading that when Ronald Regan visited her they rode her horses and when the Queen visited here she rode President Regan’s horses. Now that’s politics I can embrace. :D
