IT is very sad, the nation has lost the mother of the people.
The Queen Mother was truly a jewel in the crown, a lady who was deeply loved by her people wherever she went.
It's good to see so many people lying flowers, in memory -- showing deep respect to a lady who spanned a century.
She was a sporting lady with a love of horse racing, fishing and probably many others, a country lady at heart.
She was a pearl among the royal family.
I take the time to offer my condolences to the royal family in their grief.
Good bye Ma'am. Rest in Peace.
