NO-One can ever take the Queen Mother's place. Wherever she went, her smile and charm reached out to everyone.
I shall cherish more than ever the letters I have received from her over the past 25 years.
The world will be a sadder place. She was indeed our own Queen Mother.
ADA GIBSON, Grange Street, Clayton-le-Moors.
