I am immeasurably moved to learn of the death of Her Majesty Elizabeth II. She was, without question, the greatest public servant ever known. But even more than that, she was the nation’s Nana. She became both a symbol of national unity, and the surrogate parent or grandparent many British people have lost. That this deep personal affection extended even to people who would not always consider themselves monarchists was remarkable. We are feeling her loss together this evening. God bless you, Your Majesty. My thoughts are with her family, and all of us across the country -and the world- who mourn her loss.
