Bay Area leaders extend condolences to royal family; public can sign remembrance book

With the death of Queen Elizabeth II reported by British authorities Thursday, San Francisco Mayor London Breed said a condolence book is being made available at City Hall for people who want to write messages in her memory.

Elizabeth, who died at the age of 96, became queen in 1952 and was the United Kingdom’s longest-reigning monarch. Her son Prince Charles is now King Charles III.
