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.
In other words, what you felt (or still feel) about Diana is exactly what thousands of people feel about Stevie Nicks.

It's kind of odd to hear some rabid Stevie fans express surprise or even disbelief that one could love Diana.
