I'm really praying the Queen outlives him.

I met him socially when I lived in London during the '90s. He was the guest of honor at a 4th of July garden party and said some very nice things about the special relationship between the US and England, and expressed his deep appreciation for what America had done to save his country during the world wars. This was not in a speech but just in conversation with people. I came away with the impression that beneath any eccentricity he is a strong friend of the USA. He is also self deprecating and actually fun to be around. He made some remarks about his then recent breakup with Dianna that I would not have expected.
