I hope there isn't going to be a "Candle in the Wind '07".  I don't think I can take another 3 years of that song :\'(

It was said at the service this is now the point we can let her rest in peace.

The 10th anniversary was a garish display of mawkish celebrity worship.  These tabloid-types make no distinction between Lady Diana and JonBenet Ramsey. 

I did feel sad for William and Harry.  The death of one's mother is a universal kind of grief, whether your last name is Smith or Windsor.

Which is basically what we should've done ten years ago... ::)

Still, there are those who just won't let things go...

Come 2017, there will be a 20th anniversary of her passing and the 30th anniversary in 2027.  It probably won't ever end ::)

It will far to much then, we should commit her to memory. nothing wrong with the family remembering, but the majority of the mourners at the funeral service back in 1997 had never met her.
