Is it just me, or is it starting to feel like fall? 🍂 Here’s today’s forecast: ☀️ 48 – 79° in Logan ☀️ 60 – 86° in Salt Lake City ☀️ 62 – 91° in St. George Today is Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral. As much as a monarchy is a foreign concept to me, I must admit I’m in awe of how many people loved and admired her — even those who barely knew her. Mourners lined up for 30 hours to pay their respects. I’m particularly struck by the touching relationship she had with the people of Aberfan in Wales. On October 21, 1966, a catastrophic coal mine collapse killed 116 children and 28 adults. The Queen visited and began a lifelong relationship that left a profound impact on the community. According to WalesOnline, Keira Farrell, a resident of Aberfan, said of her passing, “It's sad because she's a person. I'm not a royalist, but she has a family because it's their grandmother. When anyone loses their grandmother it's horrible.” Claire Vaughan, who doesn’t consider herself a “massive royalist” said, “I have massive respect for the Queen.” If you want to watch the funeral live, you can watch it here on KSL-TV from 3:30 AM to 10 AM.
