Queen Elizabeth II has passed away. She was 96 years old and had been Queen of England since 1952 (that is more than 70 years). Queen Elizabeth saw much throughout her life and we hope that she is at peace.
Many musicians throughout the rock and metal community have reached out on social media to share their thoughts and love for that of Queen Elizabeth and the Royal Family. Among those who have provided statements are that of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, Elton John, Geezer Butler, and many more. You can find some of those statements below.

For my whole life Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II has always been there. In my childhood I can recall watching her wedding highlights on TV. I remember her as a beautiful young lady, to the much beloved grandmother of the nation. My deepest sympathies are with the Royal family. pic.twitter.com/3JLILZDKwK
