President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden are aboard Air Force One heading home to the United States after attending Queen Elizabeth’s funeral.

Former President Barack Obama posted a video to Twitter remembering his first time meeting the queen.

"She reminded me very much of my grandmother, which surprised me, not just in appearance but also in manner. Very gracious, and also no nonsense. Wry sense of humor that she could not have been more kind or thoughtful to me and Michelle," Obama recalled.

"Shortly thereafter, Michelle and Malia and Sasha, my two daughters, had occasion to go back to England. Buckingham Palace reached out and Her Majesty had invited Michelle, and the two girls to tea," he said. "She had then offered the girls to drive in her golden carriage around the grounds of Buckingham Palace. It was the sort of generosity and consideration that left a mark in my daughters' lives."

He added, "The combination of a sense of duty, and a clear understanding of her role as a symbol for a nation and as the carrier of a certain set of values, combined with a very human quality of kindness and consideration. I think that's what made her so beloved, not just in Great Britain but around the world."

Michelle Obama on Monday recounted her first memory with the queen in a video on Instagram, and wrote, “My heart goes out to the Royal Family and all those mourning Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's passing.”

Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin has departed London for the final time following Monday’s funeral service and powerful procession.

Now the coffin is in a hearse and is en route to St. George’s Chapel in Windsor where a committal service will be held.

Princess Anne, the queen's only daughter, is in the car behind the hearse, accompanying her mother on each step of this final journey.

Prince William's two oldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, stood alongside their parents, watching the coffin be placed into the hearse. Princess Charlotte is wearing a horseshoe brooch given to her by Queen Elizabeth.

After a solemn service and procession, the crowds cheered and threw flowers as the hearse drove by.

Queen Elizabeth’s funeral service at Westminster Abbey has concluded. Now underway is a solemn procession through London, from Westminster Abbey to Wellington Arch.

The queen's coffin was taken by Buckingham Palace for the final time during the procession.

Prince William's two oldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, watched the procession alongside their parents, aunts and uncles.

From Wellington Arch, the coffin will be driven to Windsor for a committal service.

Queen Elizabeth’s nearly one-hour funeral service at Westminster Abbey ended with a national two minutes of silence.
