Kenya: Queen Elizabeth II, the epitome of dignity, grace, faith, continuity, security, and a joy to all wherever she went; hard working monarch till the end of her days; thank you Your Majesty, and may you rest in peace. Our deepest and sincere condolences to the Royal Family.
From SKAL CORDOBA, ARGENTINA, we send our deepest condolences to all the British people and especially to our Skalleagues friends, for the loss of our beloved QUEEN Elisabeth II. Rest in peace, Madam.
My first recollection of Queen Elizabeth was when my late dad used to take me and my siblings on safari in the mid 70’s to the eponymous Queen Elizabeth National Park named in commemoration of the Queens visit to Uganda in 1954.
Years later our Primary School Headmaster announced that our school would celebrate Common Wealth Day with a concert. I dressed in a Scottish kilt borrowed from my sister and did my best to play the part.
I eventually ended up in the tourism sector and guided visitors to Queen Elizabeth National Park and in 2007 too at the Common Wealth of Heads of Government Meeting in Kampala (CHOGM) which was one of the Queens last international engagements.
Until it was temporarily shifted to give way for the Kampala Fly Over , The Queens Clock Tower colloquially known as’ Sawa ya Queeni’ was the major landmark like a sailors ‘ light house’ leading from the Entebbe International Airport where the Queen Elizabeth landed as a Princess and boarded as a Queen on return to England to take up her royal duties after the passing of her father in 1952.
May the cherubim’s receive Her at the gates of Heaven in the everlasting kingdom of God whom she so served diligently on Planet Earth. God Save The Queen

Thank you Your Majesty for your years of public service, leadership, compassion and at the same time a mother not only to your family but to the world. You were the Queen of England but you were also a kind and loving great lady, an icon and inspiration to many, and will be remember from every corner of the world. Throughout history, we’ve looked to Your Majesty for your steadiness, and not once have you faltered. You kept your promise to serve until the very end. I was luckily enough to have met you and members of your gracious family, those memories will last a life time for me and I know there are so many others with similar stories and memories which will live on
Rest in Peace

I shared in the joy’s presence of the English people on the day of the coronation of HRH Elizabeth the II and I admired from a distance from the Kingdom her superhuman strength as Queen of the World, as a mother. With the inevitable smile until this sad day. Rest in peace, Madam.
Despite Queen Elizabeth II’s Age; She was Very elegant till the end. May Her Soul Rest In Peace. Amen.
