It was with the greatest sadness that we learned of the death of Her Majesty The Queen. Throughout her reign she exemplified selfless public service and devotion to duty. She touched the lives of so many people of all generations not only within this country but also across the Commonwealth and indeed the whole World. She will be remembered with the greatest affection and gratitude.
