@_sueldelioness: Y’all are too much abeg and too opinionated over other peoples lives and how you think they should live or express themselves because you have Access to them via social media.
How does been 96 mean that someone’s passing cannot be expressed as a shock??? I mean the Queen was just with the governor on Tuesday of same week televised and died three days later…yes that can be described as shocking as no public airing of a decline in health whatsoever was made known but most of you don’t read to understand.
Queen Elizabeth II will be laid to rest at St. George’s Chapel within the grounds of Windsor Castle, one of the late Queen’s favourite homes and where many royals have been laid to rest before her.
