RIP Coverage begins 5am Eastern and things get rolling at 6am. It should all wrap up by noon Eastern if not sooner with her being placed in her final resting place in Windsor.

Funerals aren’t for the deceased. They’ve always been for their survivors.

Catholics pray for the dead. So do Jews.

You must be Irish, celebrating a loved one finally released from this veil of tears.
Or maybe an Italian, who thinks observing melodramatics is fun.

I was in England in 1965 when Churchill died. I swear I watched the entire British army march by his bier that day of the funeral. It went on all day....

She is not staying in the royal vault, after everyone leaves she and Phillip will be raised back up and taken to where her parents are interred, or so I have read

Though obviously raised in a privileged upbringing, she was a caring and loving Monarch and she had a ‘common touch’ that Charles has never demonstrated. In fact, few politicians have such a ‘common touch’, certainly NOT XiJinBiden, nor up here in Canaduh, Justin Castreau! The latter at least, seems to think he is the Emperor of Canaduh, and much of the bought and paid for Canadian MSM, seem to agree.

to explain that her “thoughts” would be with the Royal Family upon her own death. WTH does that mean? How can a deceased person have thoughts?
