In reverence and recognition of the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, The Bee’s Knees British Imports will postpone its scheduled Grand Opening to a future date. Tomorrow will instead be a day of remembrance.
From 2 - 5 pm on Friday, September 9, 2022 the shop will serve light refreshments as they honor and remember their beloved Queen.
“The Queen has meant so much to so many people and she’s been our Queen our entire lives, we are devastated,” said Lucinda Sears, co-founder, The Bees Knees British Imports. “In the coming days we’ll continue to honor her and her unprecedented reign as we share and remember with our community.”
