A book of condolences has been placed at the Forbes Shire Council where residents can write down their messages for the Royal Family. Peter Harrop, who moved to Forbes a few months ago, took the opportunity on Monday to pay his respects to the Queen and for everything she had done for Australia. There is also a book of condolences in Parkes at the office of the Member for Riverina, Michael McCormack, available to the public to sign.
