Mourners left newspaper clippings and pictures of Britain’s longest-serving monarch from various moments in her 70-year reign.
LONDON — The big bubble letters in blue crayon seemed to sum up much of the country’s mood: “Miss you,” a child had written on a small notecard, next to a drawing of something that looked a lot like a corgi. It lay between purple tulips and red carnations outside of the gates of Buckingham Palace.
But it’s the handwritten missives that stand out, ranging from the serious to the poignant, the rambling to the funny, many offering a window into how people felt about the queen. Some of the youngest Britons’ scrawl is hard to make out.“Rest in peace, Queen Kong,” one child wrote beside a picture of the queen, with hat and handbag, climbing Big Ben much like King Kong scaled the Empire State Building.
“When you sat alone at your husband’s funeral all those bereaved by covid, during the pandemic, felt a connection,” the note read. “A grieving lady on her own all alone just like us. Leading the nation by example.”
