It is with the utmost sadness this evening that we receive the news of The Queen’s passing, surrounded by her immediate family at Balmoral.

We send our heartfelt condolences to her children, Charles, Prince of Wales; Anne, Princess Royal; Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, as well as to her beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

After a life of devoted service, The Queen’s steady hand has guided our nation for 70 years through some of the best, and worst times. With unwavering dedication, The Queen has left a lasting legacy not only in this country, but in The Commonwealth and beyond.

It has been an honour to celebrate The Queen’s many highlights over the years with our readers, including her Platinum Jubilee in June 2022.

My Weekly will include readers’ tributes to The Queen in a future issue. If you would like to send a few words, please email srodger@dctmedia.co.uk.
