\u201cWe join the whole world in mourning her passing and appreciating the life of generosity to mankind , devotion to duty, service to country, dedication to family and faith in God so humbly and ably embodied.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time,\u201d reads the statement in part,\u201d says a statement from State House. Chakwera says the British monarch was also the Queen of Malawi between 1964 and 1966 as Malawi was transitioning into a Republic.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy wife and I have fond memories of the Queen\u2019s visit in July 1979, during which she captivated the imagination of Malawians and demonstrated the same solidarity with our quest for socio-economic liberation as she had done with our political Independence,\u201d says Chakwera.<\/p>\n

Chakwera says her imitable legacy as a friend of Malawi will forever be etched on Malawians\u2019 hearts. The new monarch, Prince Charles, the first born of the Queen will be called King Charles III.<\/p>\n
