She was also the last Empress of India. (It was not Queen Victoria).

That is EXACTLY where I received this sad news. Click on 'TOPIC' in upper right hand corner; scroll down to "BREAKING NEWS"; click; then scroll up a bit, and click on "CLICK TO SUBSCRIBE" in the left sidebar. Refresh your page, and "BREAKING NEWS" will appear in your sidebar. Trust me...if I can do it (admittedly; my cat helped), ANYONE can!

Lived in three different centuries. Not a bad run.

She was born in 1900. Anyway she had a long life.

If I am not mistaken, the year 1900 is the last year of the 19th century.

Thanks for the Pics. The only ones I've seen of her were in her declining years.

BTW, she attributed her longevity to Homeopathy!

Agreed. 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.

Another reason to have BREAKING NEWS! I've tried adding it and I can't get it to work. I am very sorry to hear about the passing of the Queen Mother, the English people will now have another Royal to grieve for and a more somber Easter. My mom is such an Anglophile, and I feel a strong connections with this nation as well
(IF I am having dificulty getting breaking news, imagine what a brand new person to FR will think? You have to SIGN UP for breaking news??????? He'll be off to Drudge in a heartbeat. I just don't get this...)

My sympathies to the British people. She was one Royal that everyone loved. The thought of her brave words when Buckingham Palace was bombed during WWII - that now she could face the people of the East End whose homes had already been bombed - always brought tears to my eyes, and certainly do today.
