Princess Diana We Remember

Post by kittykins »

What sad day that was 20 years ago today. It doesn't seem like it should be that long ago. There's a special on TV tomorrow night, Diana 7 Days. This is the tribute by the boys to their mother as I understand it, but it's just a replay of a documentary shown in May.

I've been going over the "Diana Tapes" that she made with the help of her friends. and the movie "Unlawful Killing" is up on my web site. tinyurl.com/n767cfw I know some of you disagree, but it's very important to know the truth. So many things can only be explained by her death being non-accidental. The movie takes it's name from the verdict of the British Inquiry. The jury was not allowed to bring back a verdict of murder. They brought back the next most serious charge, "Unlawful Killing."
She was indeed our brightest light. I was especially fond of her and when she died I was physically sick for a week. No energy. Half the world stopped what they were doing and watched the funeral. That's how well she was loved. I don't think there has been such a display in history nor since. It's fitting that the woman who wanted so much to be loved was sent to heaven on the biggest wave of love that humanity has ever created. She was indeed our brightest light.
Blessings on her soul.

This was so brilliant. I don't know how Elton managed to keep his composure, I really don't, considering he was a friend of hers.

I was on a work assignment at the World Health Organization in Geneva and woke up to the news of Diana's death on that Sunday morning. Everyone at the Church of England service in downtown Geneva that morning was in shock as we offered prayers.

I was very grateful to have access to BBC World TV in my hotel room for the week that followed.

I'm told that George Michael was on hand at the funeral, prepared to take over, if Sir Elton was unable to sing.

Wow, that's interesting. I'm glad he had a back-up plan. I'm also glad he didn't need one!
