QE2’s personal piper would wake her daily with a skirl of the bagpipes. The final tune of her state funeral service was Sleep, Dearie, Sleep.

Really?? Every morning? That's amazing.

Playing the Scottish tune Sleep, Dearie, Sleep for the Queen at her funeral is especially poignant then.

BBC has one of several stories describing the piper playing bagpipes for 15 minutes daily for the queen.
