This for me too.

It is desperately sad to lose Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11.
It is odd in a way how her just being there, was in fact a part of our lives.

Even after her loss of Prince Philip her devotion to duty continued.
There are many ways respect can be shown.
It doesn't have to be in the avoidance of life and events.

Her Majesty's example was to carry on with duty and I really doubt, (obviously I cannot say with certainty), however I do personally doubt cancelling things would be her wishes.

So I think the post above as to a rendition of the National anthem.
With a period of silence also.
Would be as fitting as to respect and also possibly more in line with Her Majesty's own wishes.
