We are deeply saddened by the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II who had, for over 70 years, dedicated her life to the service of her country and the Commonwealth.
We will mourn her passing, which is a great loss to us all, but let us not forget the loss to the Royal Family, who have not only lost a Queen but a mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Their loss is greater than any of us can imagine.
We send our heartfelt condolences to His Majesty King Charles III and his family at this sad time.
The President and Members,
Rotary Newton Aycliffe
