The monarchy is an anachronism and I suspect that Charles may well be the last of the line ... certainly for Commonwealth countries that haven't already become republics.
However, from her role as an ATS driver during WW2 through to her patience and forebearance in dealing with a whole gamut of prime ministers, good, bad and indifferent, during her reign, you can't deny the class, determination and devotion of Elizabeth II.
