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.
