‘Queen Elizabeth II a gentle, solid rock of stability’
Speaker Romualdez: We mourn the loss of a great world leader who served as an inspiration to many generations of public servants in all parts of the globe
SPEAKER Martin G. Romualdez on Friday expressed his condolences to the family of Queen Elizabeth II who died at her Scottish Highland retreat on Thursday at the age of 96.
“I join the Filipino nation in offering our heartfelt and deep sympathies to the Royal Family, the government, and the people of Great Britain on the demise of Queen Elizabeth II,” Romualdez said.
“We mourn the loss of a great world leader who served as an inspiration to many generations of public servants in all parts of the globe,” Romualdez said.
Queen Elizabeth was the longest-serving monarch in British history and is considered an icon around the world.
Romualdez said Queen Elizabeth II was a very gentle leader responsible for great stability in her nation.
“We will remember her as a gentle, yet solid rock of stability who exhibited grace and decency in performing her duty in times of crisis,” Romualdez said.
“Her name will never be forgotten, and her memories as a great monarch will remain etched in our hearts forever,” Romualdez added.
Charles, 73 and Prince of Wales, became king being the eldest of Queen Elizabeth II’s four children.
