Your Thoughts


. Diana God put you on this earth and gave your life a purpose. You helped countless millions in your short time in our world. I am very proud to have been here to hear and see first hand all of what you did for peace and for the poor and suffering people in the world today. Of all the people in history that have helped people your name will be at the top of the list and for centuries to come the name of Diana, Princess of Wales will be spoken with reverence and awe.

For all the good that you did it is hard to imagine that you could have done much more for humanity. Although I am sure you would have surprised us all.

The only time in my life I weeped for a public figure. May God bless and protect the House of Windsor

Together with my two daughters Claire age 9 and Ciara aged 4, I offer Prince William and Prince Harry our sincere condolences on the death of their wonderful Mother. We hope they realise that their Mother was a source of inspiration to others especially when their lives were dark and bleak. She lit up all our lives, just a picture of her smiling face helped.

She was a beautiful and caring person. You both can be very proud of her. Our thoughts are with you both. But remember she is now in a place where she can look over you both for the rest of your lives. She will have a special place in Heaven.

God bless you both. Carol, Claire and Ciara, Holland.


She was not perfect, nor could she be, She left with her sons a royal legacy, She captured our hearts with her grace and style. We'll never forget her - Diana, the Princess, her radiant smile.

Condolences to the family and especially the sons of Diana at the loss of a wonderful human being, who showed just how human we should be with our humanity. A lot of Brits in Southern California will sorely miss her inspiring presence on this planet.

The world has lost a great human being.

I only saw Princess Diana once from about 10 yards away, but no television pictures could ever do justice to her inner beauty and grace that shone out as an aura around her. She had William with her and she has passed this quality on to him.

The world has lost a truly special person, she will be missed for generations to come. Our thoughts a prayers go out to her two young sons and her family and friends.

We are devastated and deeply saddened at the loss of a beautiful, vibrant and caring person. Diana was a true humanitarian, she touched our hearts in a way in which no other human being ever has, or possibly, ever will. We will miss her and she will always be fondly remembered, and we pray that she is resting in peace.

What a tragic loss the world has experienced in the death of Diana. She took on causes such as AIDS when most governments or world leaders would not even speak the word. We have all lost a great humanitarian.

With respect,

We are very sad that the world has lost a person who helped a lot of people who were less fortunate. The car accident was very unfortunate and it was terrible that you died. Make sure Harry and William are OK.

We wish to extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences to Princes William and Harry and to the whole British Nation so tragically bereaved of such a special person who could truly touch peoples hearts. "Good night sweet Princess, and flights of angels lead thee to Thy rest".

The death of Diana, Princess of Wales can least be called a heart rending tragedy. It is a moment of grief and sorrow that such a warm human being who had so much good to think and give to this world should die such an untimely, cruel death.

She was a radiant personality.....her radiance reached and touched people who needed it the most...the poor, the destitute, AIDS patients and landmines victims. And as she said in her interview to Panorama, she will definitely be the Queen of our Hearts..... an ambassador of Great Britain and this world.....even after her death.

Diana was an angel and she has gone to the heavens to remain an angel forever.....Lets hope she will be happy there.......

We will miss you Diana......and will carry fond memories of your wonderful self.....

The extent of Princess Diana's impact on the world is measured by the love and grief that the whole world is expressing. Her legacy should not be forgotten but carried on by the organisations and people that she represented. If so, the world can demonstrate that she did make a difference. Not only in the immediate wake of her terrible death, but in the years to come.

There will never be another who will touch the people by her honesty, compassion, and sadness. She had the social status to make things happen. My family is totally devastated by all the events surrounding her death. She brought the monarchy to the people and made use of her position in a positive way. She will forever be in our hearts, and indeed is the Queen of Hearts that she wished to be.

Forever in our hearts,

The Cockerton Family


Words cannot express the grief felt by all,

Diana was an inspiration to everybody and will always be in our Hearts. She is safe now, may she rest in peace.

We have lost a friend of the people. Although I did not know her, I cried and was in shock when I saw the news on Sunday morning. It is a very big loss for the world and especially for the United Kingdom. She was the real Royal Highness.

I send my deepest sympathy to Princess Diana's family but most of all her sons. You have all my prayers. It was a senseless death for such a great person. She cared about everyone.

God Bless

She was the renaissance that was bringing the Royal Family into the 21st century. They may not consider her to be a Royal anymore but in my heart she is something more. She worked hard and caused events to happen and attention to be directed at problems that she saw. She went places that many would fear to go in her quest for others. She touched AIDS patients on the hand and us in our hearts. The world has lost a great campaigner for the less fortunate.

GOD SAVE OUR QUEEN

Princess Diana,

You take care of things in Heaven for us. We miss you now, but we will all be with you again. The world will take care of your boys for you. We love you, rest in peace.

Jim and Sandra


Thank you so much for all you have given in your life. You have touched me like you have billions of other people, in such a special way. I am proud of what you did for our country. You made me patriotic. You will be missed by everyone. You will always be in my heart, forever.

Thank you for everything. Love Always,

D.Adams Cheshire, England
