Funeral Procession for Queen to Windsor Castle; Hundreds of Thousands Line Up to See Casket

 Hundreds of world leaders attended the state funeral for Queen Elizabeth II in London today (September 19, 2022) and millions around the world watched an historic event not seen on such a grand scale since the last British monarch died 70 years ago, the UPI website reports.


Today's state funeral came after the queen had lay in state for four days inside Westminster Hall and hundreds of thousands of people waited in line -- in some case for many hours -- to pay tribute and walk past her casket.


The queen's casket began a long procession that traveled through London and was met by thousands of mourners along the route. It reached the final destination at Windsor Castle early this afternoon.
