LONDON (Reuters) – Britain’s King Charles paid tribute to his late mother Queen Elizabeth on Monday with a handwritten note laid on top of her coffin reading: “In loving and devoted memory, Charles R.”

The note was placed amid a colourful wreath for the late monarch that Buckingham Palace said contained, at Charles’s request, rosemary, English Oak and myrtle, which had been cut from a plant grown from myrtle used in Elizabeth’s wedding bouquet.

There were also gold, pink, burgundy and white flowers cut from the gardens of royal residences.
