Speaking from outside his home of Highgrove in Gloucestershire on Saturday, Prince Charles said he and his family “miss my father enormously” as he paid tribute to a “very special person”.
“I particularly wanted to say that my father… I suppose the last 70 years has given the most remarkable, devoted service to the Queen, to my family and to the country and also to the whole of the Commonwealth and as you can imagine my family and I miss my father enormously,” the Duke’s eldest son said.
“He was a much-loved and appreciated figure and apart from anything else I can imagine that he would be so deeply touched by the number of other people here and elsewhere around the world and in the Commonwealth who also think… share our loss and our sorrow and my dear Papa was a very special person, who I think above all else would have been amazed by the reaction and the touching things that have been said about him.
“And from that point of view, we are, my family, deeply grateful for all that.
“It will sustain us in this particular loss and at this particularly sad time. Thank you.”
