Did anyone else get emotional watching the funeral procession for the Queen?

I’m not a Royal watcher by any means and I’ve never met the Queen, but I was moved watching the images from today. Maybe it’s the general sense of loss, and empathizing with the family. Maybe it’s the fact that something that has been a constant throughout my life, is now gone, the end of an era, and endings are generally sad.
Or maybe it’s a reminder of my own aging and mortality. That not even the Queen lives forever.

I find it sad. I am not a Royal watcher either but she’s been a constant all my life. More importantly she’s a person. Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Aunt, all of those roles and she was the Queen.

It’s sad and I understand why people wouldn’t care but I have seen people be downright disrespectful and there is no need for that.
@iamonfire696 I agree with all of this completely
