120
countries

visits
and
has
met
with
numerous

sports
has
also
been
well
documented,
a
passion
she
has
passed
down
to
her
daughter
Anne. Despite

has
played
an
important
role
in
promoting
many
charities
and
good
causes.
She
has
been

of
over
600
charities
and
organizations,

Red
Cross
and
the
Royal
National
Lifeboat
Institution.

charitable
work
has
earned
her
widespread
respect
and
admiration,
making
her
an
inspiration
not
only
to
the
people
of
the
UK
but
to
those
around
the
world. Her
Majesty
also
values
family
above
all
else,
having
been
married
to
Prince
Philip,
Duke
of
Edinburgh
for
more
than
70
years.
Together
they
have
four
children,
eight
grandchildren,
and
ten
great-grandchildren.
Her
commitment
to
her
family
has
been
evident
throughout
her
reign,
even
during
times
of
personal
tragedy,
such
as
the
death
of
her
mother
and
her
sister,
Princess
Margaret. As
we
celebrate
the
remarkable
life
of
Queen
Elizabeth
II,
we
can
only
be
thankful
for
her
lifelong
dedication
and
service
to
her
country
and
people.
Her
reign
has
been
a
true
testament
to
the
power
of
resilience,
commitment,
and
service.
