FAREWELL FIT FOR A QUEEN THE HEARSE travels along the Long Walk as it makes its way to Windsor Castle, on the day of the state funeral and burial of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth, in Windsor, yesterday. Photo: Carl Recine/AP By PAVEL BAILEY Tribune Staff Reporter pbailey@tribunemedia.net MEMBERS of the British Royal family, various world leaders including Prime Minister Phillip “Brave” Davis, spectators and viewers across the globe mourned Queen Elizabeth II during her funeral yesterday. In the days before the funeral, Mr Davis met with the Queen’s son, King Charles III, at Buckingham Palace
where he conveyed his condolences and good wishes to the new monarch. On Monday, the world bid final farewell to Britain and the Commonwealth’s longest reigning monarch in a day of solemn ceremony that began in a funeral service at Westminster Abbey and ending in a communal service in St George’s Chapel. Following a sombre procession through London led by military honour guard amidst streets teeming with mourners, the late Queen’s coffin, atop
the traditional gun carriage, was taken to Westminster Abbey for her state funeral with over 2,000 dignitaries in attendance. There Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby during his sermon remarked that the late monarch was a “joyous” presence in countless lives during her 70-year reign. The archbishop also extended personal condolences to the Queen’s family, praying for their comfort in their very public time of grief. “The grief of this day felt not only by the late Queen’s family, but all around
the nation, the Commonwealth and the world, arises from her abundant life and loving service now gone from us. She was joyful, present for so many, touching a multitude of lives and we pray today especially for all her family grieving as every family at a funeral, including so many families around the world who have themselves lost someone recently, but in this family’s case, doing so in the brightest spotlight,” Archbishop Welby said.
