UK's Queen Elizabeth II Funeral Service

What did the handwritten note on top of the Queen's coffin say?


was difficult to read, but the note on top of the Queen's coffin in Westminster Abbey carried a heartfelt final message from a mourning son.

Handwritten by King Charles III, it read:

"In loving and devoted memory. Charles R."

The note lay on a wreath which contained flowers and foliage cut from the gardens of Buckingham Palace, Clarence House and Highgrove House.

They included rosemary for remembrance, and myrtle cut from a plant that was grown from a sprig of myrtle in the Queen's wedding bouquet in 1947.
