Vic­ar Gen­er­al of The An­gli­can Church in the Dio­cese of Trinidad and To­ba­go Ven­er­a­ble Ed­win Primus has said that Queen Eliz­a­beth II's de­vo­tion to her faith and her God is an in­spi­ra­tion to us as a Church.

The fol­low­ing is a state­ment from the Vic­ar Gen­er­al.

"Her Majesty Queen Eliz­a­beth II served as Queen of the Unit­ed King­dom and head of the Com­mon­wealth for over 70 years.

Her pass­ing is a tremen­dous loss, not on­ly to those who she served with great dig­ni­ty but to the wider world.

On be­half of the An­gli­can Church in the Dio­cese of Trinidad and To­ba­go, I ex­tend our heart­felt con­do­lences to The Roy­al Fam­i­ly, the Church of Eng­land, the Peo­ple of Eng­land, the Com­mon­wealth and all oth­ers who mourn.

The Queen, with her qui­et de­meanor ded­i­cat­ed her life and her work in great ser­vice to oth­ers. She was com­mit­ted to fam­i­ly and the peo­ple she served.

She sup­port­ed over 500 char­i­ties, us­ing her in­flu­ence and her po­si­tion to make a dif­fer­ence in the life of peo­ple all over the world. Her de­vo­tion to her faith and her God is an in­spi­ra­tion to us as a Church.

We have ex­pe­ri­enced her, ded­i­ca­tion, dis­ci­pline, kind­ness and strong work eth­ic.

She has served her fam­i­ly, her coun­try, the Com­mon­wealth and the cit­i­zens of the world tire­less­ly and we ac­knowl­edge her con­tri­bu­tion on im­pact­ing and im­prov­ing the life of oth­ers.

We com­mem­o­rate her ex­am­ple, her life and work. Rest eter­nal grant un­to her O Lord, and let light per­pet­u­al shine up­on her.

May she rest in Peace!"
