Prince William's Tribute To Grandpa Prince Philip

 Prince William, Duke of Cambridge has paid tribute to his grandfather Prince Philip who passed away last Friday at Windsor Castle.

William included a photo of Philip and Prince George taken by the Duchess of Cambridge in 2015 at their home Anmer Hall. 

Here are William's moving words and the gorgeous photograph:

 "My grandfather's century of life was defined by service – to his country and Commonwealth, to his wife and Queen, and to our family."

"I feel lucky to have not just had his example to guide me, but his enduring presence well into my own adult life – both through good times and the hardest days. I will always be grateful that my wife had so many years to get to know my grandfather and for the kindness he showed her.

"I will never take for granted the special memories my children will always have of their great-grandpa coming to collect them in his carriage and seeing for themselves his infectious sense of adventure as well as his mischievous sense of humour!

"My grandfather was an extraordinary man and part of an extraordinary generation. Catherine and I will continue to do what he would have wanted and will support The Queen in the years ahead. I will miss my Grandpa, but I know he would want us to get on with the job."
