Sen. Grassley Recalls Meeting Queen Elizabeth II

With the pending funeral for Queen Elizabeth II in London, U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley is recalling his first and only meeting with the monarch in 1991.

Grassley says it’s not an encounter he could’ve imagined as a farm boy from New Hartford in Butler County.

Grassley says he’s also been fortunate to be in the presence of other dignitaries including being in an audience for Pope John Paul II and to have his picture taken with Anwar Sadat about three months before the Egyptian President was assassinated.
