It's interesting to note that even as she was dieing, she made people call her "m'am", her "royalty" was probably the only thing she had left to hold onto in a decaying life.

Even though I am from a different country, I mourn her passing, as will many Americans. Princess Margaret Rose was a symbol of ladyhood and grace to many of us.

"The blood of generations drips
as wounded spirits mourn
souls weeping from their resting place
"another one is gone"

Warriors fall to their knees
hear the heart felt cries
As blood of generations drips
when the Eagles die

To soar amongst the heavens
many men have dreamed
But none were graced upon the lands
except the mighty winged

Look upon the heavens
with tears in saddened eyes
Winds blow in silent emptiness
when the Eagles die."

Great bit of prose there Saz, and like many of the others, I was never a huge royal family supporter, but regardless of that, she was still a human and will be mourned s fitting.
Also, I agree Ronn Bman, everyone knew about her preferences, but they didn't have to air her dirty laundry, especially not at a time like that.
