London Bridge has fallen and an icon departs.

7 Decades, 15 Prime Ministers. 1 Queen.

Britain’s longest serving monarch of 70 years has passed away.

A legacy hard to beat and certainly remembered for generations to come.

May she Rest In Peace. #lka #QueenElizabeth pic.twitter.com/fwlMJYPLQd

All the Queen’s four children are now with her at Balmoral Castle. Along with her grandson, the Duke of Cambridge.
