I appreciated the fact that she was unafraid of risks (holding an AIDS patient's hand, hugging that gruesome girl in the story above) and took a stand on things she felt strongly about (eradication of mines, the foul stink of the paparazzi (sp?) ) And, I sympathized with her as her marriage disintegrated.

I grew to love the person she became, not just the fairy tale princess, and when she died, I truly felt the world had lost someone very special.
