Very sad to learn that the Queen has passed away today. I personally met Her Royal Highness during the 1987 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Vancouver, BC.

LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!

RIP - Maam

Queen Elizabeth II died on Thursday in her Scottish residence, Balmoral Castle, with several members of the Royal Family by her side.
