Book of condolence opened by Mid Ulster Council following the death of Prince Philip

Deputy Chair of Mid Ulster District Council, Councillor Meta Graham, has expressed her sadness at the news: “I am greatly saddened by the death of the Duke of Edinburgh, a man who lived a life of public service for more than seven decades, the vast majority of those years by the side of his wife, Her Majesty The Queen.

“And while there will be a very public sense of loss as the country mourns Prince Philip, I think about the very personal and deeply felt grief which his family will now experience and offer my heartfelt condolences”.

The book can be signed at the council's website.
