Latest CondolencesIt is with great shock and the deepest respect that my family and I mourn the passing of the worlds brightest light. We have lost that light here in our mortal coil, but we can rest assured that there will be an even brighter light looking down on us from Heaven, a place we all know she we find the true happiness that she sould have had here on earth.

Usha from India Princess Diana was one of those few people of whom it can be truly said that the world is a better place for having known her. We lost one of our truly irreplaceable treasures yesterday. Let us not forget the lessons she so eloquently showed us. However great we feel our own personal grief, our hearts and prayers must go out to her family and especially her sons. William and Harry, your mother was one of the truly great ladies of our time. It has been a privilege for us all to have been able to share her with you, no matter how bitterly briefly that time was. God bless. Brian Smith. San Francisco. It is with great sorrow I am writing this regarding the untimely death of this great lady. My heart and prayers go out first and foremost to Prince William and Prince Harry. Princess Di' touched not only my heart with the deeds that she accomplished, but the hearts of so many others. Not just in the U.K., but throughout the world.

Bob Hogan, Wichita, Kansas My heartfelt condolences to Prince William and Prince Harry, to the family of Princess Diana, to the Royal family and to the British people. Diana was a princess to England but she was also one to the world and we will all miss her. E Wright, Washington DC, USA IT WAS REALLY A SHOCKING NEWS FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW THE UNCERTAIN TRAGIC DEATH OF PRINESS DIANA. PLEASE ACCEPT MY CONDOLENCE AND MAY GOD GIVE COURAGE TO HER CHILDREN TO FACE THIS TIME OF GRIEF. MANISH The death of the princess of Wales has truly overshadowed our 40th National Day Celebrations. It only goes to proof her popularity amongst the majority of Malaysians. Her grace and selflessness in looking into the needs of the poor and sick would remain in our hearts forever. Thanks for the memories and the seed of hope you've planted in the hearts of many, Princess . DNN Klang, Malaysia I'm from India. We share the grief experienced by all. Rest in Peace. Arun Simha . I am still a very dazed person at the news of this untimely and gruesome death of this Princess of hearts; She I felt did not deserve this kind of an end, and I still wonder WHY she? She had been really good and wonderful at heart, in carrying herself across to all the people in the world through her work, her action. Was'nt that enough for the people to know her? Why did they need to know this person's personal details, to the extent that they have sent her over the edge to a place where they can only remember her for her popularity, and her trysts with the press. Last afternoon, I was at this picnic, blissfully enjoying the beauty around this place, when RTHK confirmed her death. It left me and the people here in deep shock. But speaking for myself, I was really wondering all thru the night, WHY her, and WHY this manner to end the life of an angel personified. I am sure that she would have taken time to get this breathing space she was desperately in search of, to get her time and priorities worked out, so that she could find that happiness of the personal life that she was in need of. May GOD bless her soul for Eternal Peace, and may HE grant her family and the two Princes' the strength to go thru this bereavement. Maybe emotions speak louder than mere words, and my words would not have expressed the true feelings that I have for this woman, a world ambassador, a Princess in all rights. From an Indian in Hong Kong Shrikant S. An Angel set foot upon the earth...She caressed the planet's soul... Princess of the People, The Queen of our Hearts... We will never forget... I will never forget. Godspeed, Princess Diana, called home,.. too soon.. too soon... Prince William, Prince Harry, my heart is with you. Remember your mother's strength, humility, and humanity. Keep it in your heart, as we will always keep the memory of hers in ours. God be with you. Roy Walck Orlando, Fla I FELT REALLY LOSE TO HEAR THE DEATH OF MY PRINCESS.

OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU ALL" Sincerely The Kellogg Family Bill & Candy & Billy JR. & Kimberly I am a medical resident working in USA from Bangladesh. I am very much shocked at this news. I don't even believe this news. May God bless her soul. Khondker Kashiful Islam In 1963, the world mourned a great leader, John F. Kennedy. Five years later, it was Martin Luther King. Now, 29 years later, it's Princess Diana. This week, when us Americans start school, the very first thing that will be on their minds will be this tragic weekend. Diana brought British royalty to America, and her visits to New York, Washington, and Chicago proved it. I learned about the news when I came home from work at about 8:15 Alaska time, and when I turned on the TV, I expect the unexpected: The princess was dead. I didn't cry, but my heart was stricken of the news. To all of us, Diana was half-JFK and half-name any Hollywood actress, but at this sad time in our lives, we know that Diana's legacy will continue to live on for generations to come. Jonathan Allen, Fairbanks, AK, USA As I turned the television on Saturday night, I saw that millions of people around the world had lost a special person. I felt like she was a member of my own family. Everytime something is shown on television, I feel myself getting upset and my eyes tear up. Why did this happen? Why couldn't the paparazzi just let her live a personal life? Why is so bad to see two people that care for each other embrace themselves in a place that they thought was their own privacy? Everyone is entitled to privacy. It does not matter if you are a movie star, a president or a bagger at a super market. I viewed Princess Diana as a world leader. How many people in this world can go and do the things that she did without wanting something back? She gave her life fighting for things that could make a positive outcome to our future, the entire world's future. She gave so much to people with so little. It was not about the material things that she gave these people, it was her heart. Now, the heart of those people and millions more have been broken. There are two young men out there without a mother, a friend. Why? Because of greedy, selfish people who wanted to make a buck. I think it is time for a change in law. A law that could of prevented this fatal accident, and three people could be alive today. Let people have privacy! Lisa DiBernardo -PGH PA The world has lost a true human heart which was beating for the well-being of others. Our thoughts will always embrace her memory with love as her love has embraced so many people so many times on this earth. God give patiance to her sons and her family. From Istanbul, Turkey To the family of Princess Diana,
I wish to offer my sincere condolences to Princess Diana's family, especially to her two sons. She truly was a Queen - the Queen of Everyone's Heart. She will be sorely missed. I hope that now she has the peace that she has for so long been denied.
I too, will lay my own small offering of candle and flowers with the countless others I will no doubt find when I go to one of our city churches to pay my private respects.
My first thoughts - as for so many others - were for William and Harry. I pray they may be spared now from an excess of media attention, even if their mother was not. The bereft have lost not a public figure in the Queen of Hearts, but a loved one. The Princes have lost their mother.
They in particular must be allowed to mourn properly, out of the limelight which contributed so significantly to Diana's unhappiness. If William and Harry must suffer what she has suffered at the hands of the press, then her death has been made even more futile.
Diana is owed privacy in death, if not in life. Her family too, deserve privacy for their grief. The funeral should not be allowed to become yet another royal social engagement. The rest of us will attend our memorial services and observe periods of public mourning - but if possible, let her burial be a private, dignified affair, not a media merry go round.
The families and friends of Dodi and the bodyguard, too, have been equally struck by tragedy: they must not be forgotten in this time of bereavement.
Diana, wherever you are, may you now be free to pursue the happiness which eluded you for so long in life. The thoughts of the world are with you. RIP
From SK in Australia:
Diana will live on in our hearts. From there we will be reminded of reminded of the compassion and love of life she embodied.
From ST in Australia:

Your mom was a saint on earth and now she is a true angel who will watch over you both, I promise you that.
When God takes a soul on the sabbath day, it is because they are a very special person,
they don't have to wait at the gate in heaven to be judged, they get to go right through the gate to be reunited with lost loved ones.
I have never met your mother nor did I ever think I would. Know in your hearts that the WHOLE WORLD grieves with you. I feel I have lost a member of my own family. I loved and admired her as if I had known her and my tears have not stopped all day for you both.
You have so much to be proud of, being the sons of HRH Princess Diana, she brought so much pride to your country, such a wonderful humanitarian to the world when she didn't have to do anything if she didn't want too. She was so proud of you both.
God Bless you both with all my heart, I pray for you,
Love,

Who will take them to eat hamburguers as most of the kids do? Who will show them the simple things of life? We do hope they can grow up in happiness even without their mom around.
It will be difficult because Diana meant one side of life that the royal family perhaps isn't able to show them. Our condolances to the British people.

FROM INDONESIA WE JUST WANT TO SAY THAT WE REALLY LOVE YOU DIANA !!!
My parents generation had the sudden death of John F. Kennedy, and I never before fully understood my parents reflections on that event. I now do. I think I shall always remember hearing the news and my reaction to it, she was after all our (Canadian) Princess too.
To use what will rapidly become cliche, she was "Queen of Hearts".
I'd like to extend my sympathy to her children and her family, and indeed to all people everywhere on the globe who's lives she touched.
With Great Sadness
Chris Pehlke, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
Rest in peace, Sweet Princess.

The Princess was truly a Lady of Ladies, a true Queen of our hearts here
in America. The entire world is truly a better place for having her as
part of it. The world over will truly miss her.
My prayers are with her family, and indeed with all citizens of the
United Kingdom.
Rest Sweet Diana, Princess of Wales. You finally have the privacy you
so longed for.

From John, Nancy, Scott, & Mike Family Ottawa Ontario Canada
May God be with you at this time of need and give you the strength to realise her wishes. let us please not forget Dodi and the chauffer - they have also lost their lives and have families who grieve. The whole world is with you and we publically display our tears and anger with you.
Ira, Melbourne, Australia
I was 6 years old, and living in England when Princess Diana and Prince
Charles married. At that age, I thought that all of life was as much of a
fairy tale as that beautiful wedding. As I grew, I realized that life has
troubles. Diana has had many many troubles in her life, but came through
them as a shining example to women everywhere.
I would hope that the Royal Family and Prince Charles realize what a treasure
they have lost in this woman. A woman, who while still maintaining her
dignity and Royal balance, managed to reach out and touch her country's, in
fact, the world's people so deeply.
This caring soul, who would reach out a hand to people in need, is the closest to a SAINT (other than possibly Mother Theresa) that I have seen in recent years. Her private life, her romance with Dodi, these should ALL have been her business, not that of the tabloids
and trash talkers.
While I am not a firm believer in any God, may whatever God Diana believed in
hold her close to his/her heart, until such time as Earth is ready to cherish
such a person. May he or she also look over Diana's sons in this time of
need, and in the future.

Diana, you got a lot love from this world. We love you, not as a Princess, just as a common girl, a common woman, a common young mother.
We understand all you did in your life.

Strong Family,
Toronto, Canada.
I want to add, along with the millions of other people who access the World Wide Web on a daily basis, my sheer, utter sadness that this tragedy has struck your country.
Even though I was not quite born yet, I might compare the shock and dismay that is spread across Great Britain to that which hit the United States on Nov. 22, 1963, when John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas.
But I don't want to overshadow my feelings of remorse for Diana. Yes, she had her fair share of problems in life. Don't we all, though? And it looked like she was finding some happiness in her life. Well, to paraphrase what her brother said, she's in a much more peaceful place right now.
Most important, my condolences to Diana's children. May God watch out over them as they grow up.
My prayers are also for the Royal Family in this time of grief. We Americans do feel a loss, as does the rest of the world, that Princess Diana, the "People's Princess," reigns no more.
God Bless You,
Great Britain.
Sincerely yours,
Joe Rutland

I do hope the parparazi have learnt a valuable lesson from this, and let people have their privacy back. Yes we all want to know what people are doing but I am sure that they have the right to let us know in their own time without being hounded. No-one can live under a microscope the way our celebrities do
REST IN PEACE AT LAST PRINCESS OF HEARTS
OUR THOUGHTS WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU
Ann (Australia)
A woman who brought exuberant elegance, animation and life to the Monarchy by injecting the institution with her charm, zest and beauty. It is hard to believe that someone "so alive" is now gone.
Personally, I will boycott forever, any news organization that buys the photographs and makes a profit from the marketing of the "media-murdered princess."
Maybe, if the media matures andbegins to conduct themselves responsibly and wisely as a result of the Princess's death, her death will not have been in vain. Maybe.
Good night Diana
T. Alexander, Detroit, Michigan, USA
I would aspire to be all that she was, yet I know that no one else could ever shine so brightly. Diana, we've never met, but we've always been close. I'll miss you always, and you'll forever have a place in my heart. I always wanted you to have that "normal" life you always wanted.
Rest in peace, finally.

Why is the world so unfair; taking away the most enthusiastic celebrity who has given her life for social commitments, welfare, justice and charity work.
Diana will always be remembered for her good and honest heart, and her engagement in making the world a better place for all of us. It cost her life.
We needed one of her kind to make the world open their eyes toward all the injustice, torture and hunger going on in our world. Now, she is brutally taken away, and without any replacement.
There will never be a second Diana! She was one of her kind. Let us with our hearts hope that there will show up other celebrities that could continue the work she committed her life to.
All my condolence to her children and her family. May her soul rest in peace.

Sean Michael Bigham, Washington, D.C.
We would like to express our deepest sympathies to both of you on this tragic day. When we heard the news we were shocked beyond belief. Although we never had the privilege of meeting your mother we feel as though we have also lost a family member. We only knew her through the press which now seems very ironic.
She will be deeply missed by millions. She will live on forever in our hearts.

Amidst all of this sorrow, I find solace in knowing that Diana is now
with her much desired freedom. It is so distressing though...the fact
that this modern day angel had to pay the ultimate price to get it.
My deepest sympathies to William and Harry. May the goodness of their mother carry on within them. Let her soul live on.
Diana, you will always be the princess of our hearts. Your legend will live on for as long as mankind does.
And, lest us not forget the other passengers who perished in this horrific crash. May all rest in peace.
With deepest sympathy, and regret

My days ahead will be black, as I remember the most loving, kind and vibrantly beautiful
Princes of Wales.
Minette Niemandt, Norwich, UK
I know that she has been a part of my life since her engagement to
Prince Charles. I think mostly because we were the same age--I related
with her and watched her with awe at the age of 21 marrying Prince
Charles and wondered what her life was going to be like.
I got up early the day she got married to watch her televised wedding before going to
work that day. I still have the local paper, The Hamilton Spectator,
full issue covering her wedding.
I never missed a speaking engagement on TV or a book or magazine with
articles of her. I have watched her life, read books and articles on
her life, and watched her mature and as I too was growing up and
maturing.
Like Diana, I am 36 years old. Life will never be the same for me, as I
have watched and "grown up" with her, looking to her as a role model.
Although we did not know each other personally, I felt that I knew her.
We shared the same love of glamour, clothing, and I understood and
supported her campaigns.
I too have lost close loved ones, and I would like to express my sincere
sympathy to the Royal family and particulary to Prince William and
Harry.
