At 4am (Paris time) Sunday 31 August 1997, Diana, Princess of Wales died in hospital after being involved in a car crash which instantly killed Dodi Fayed and the driver of the car. Diana's car was being chased by photographers on motorbikes at high speeds when the crash happened in a tunnel. Investigation of the accident also brought to light that the driver of the car was more than three times over the (french) alcohol limit.

| I would like to send my sincere condolences to Prince William and Prince Harry for the
unexpected death of their Mother, as a member of the Royal Australian Armoured Corps and
as Prince Charles is our Colonel and Chief, I feel that a part of the Corps has been lost
not to mention the loss of a remarkable lady, who has been the most popular member of the
Royal. Again I would like to convey my sorrows to the Royal family on the most tragic loss of a life in this century. Yours Faithfully Mark Wilson 25 Gaza Rd Puckapunyal 3662 Victoria Australia |
| I write from Spain, concretelly Vigo-Galicia. I didn't believe the horrible notice
when I watched on tv. I want to express my condolences to Brithish Nation. Signed: Sonsoles |
| It is as allways an insane act that shocks us into action. It was only a question of time before a senseless act such as this occured. Earl Spencer was right in his statement to the press. A real lady has been snatched from us. Long live Diana....VIVA DIANA |
| With the death of Diana the Royal Family has lost what I believe to be their greatest
asset. She appeared to be a wonderful, kind, sincere woman whose bresence in this world
will be saddly missed. My heart goes out to her poor children who now have to face this
world without their loving mother. Although I didn't know her and had never meet her, I
feel like I have lost a friend. Donna Hamilton New Zealand |
| My family and I are deeply sadden by the news on the death of Princess Diana. My first thought is for her two sons, who lost their mother at a young age. Fom the bottom of my heart, my deepest condolence to the Royal family. We will remember her for her role as "Queen of Hearts" and all the charitable work Princess Diana had done. It is indeed a immense lost for everyone in this world. |
| When I woke up this morning and turned on the tv there was a special edition on both
public and commercial tv of the Dutch News broadcast. I was shocked when I head of
Princess Diana's death and I want to express my sympathy to the Royal family and
especially her sons. Lady Diana was respected and admired in The Netherlands also and I
feel her passing away as a great loss. The world is left with one person less to look up
to and admire. Barbara Vos, |
| As I watched the news of your death, I realized that I was contributing to the cycle
that caused it. Before you died, I wanted to know you. I thought you had such a nice life,
and I enjoyed watching how you lived. Please forgive me, I was wrong Its not for me to know how your life was, that was something for you... not me. I was selfish. I watched, I listened, I picked up the magazine off the shelf that had your picture...... I wanted to know..... But I was wrong Your life had great meaning to me, your happiness was important to me. Please believe me, I never wanted you to suffer. I will miss you Yet, as everyone became interested in your life, it increased whatever pain you experienced.I am sorry, I did not understand, until I saw the news, about your death, how badly we had treated you. We were wrong Because you were beautiful, gracious and kind, everybody wanted to know you more. In every way, you set examples for those around you. We didn't listen. Even in pain, you were concerned for others Please forgive us You made a difference, for the time you were here, you went beyond what could humanly be done, and did it, and you continued to reach, and go beyond what anyone else could do, to help anyone in need. I'm glad you were here Please forgive us..... |
| Hello This marks the most tragic day in my life. The Princess was in my country (south africa ) a few months ago. It is most unfortunate that such a life would end in a most violent and horrific manner, paticularly since She had finally achieved true happiness. My family and I feel very deeply for Princes William and Harry, and convey our sincere condolences to them. Her sons have lost a mother most of all, and to honour her in the best way we can, nothing short of a full State funeral is appropriate and befitting this QUEEN OF HEARTS. From the EBRAHIM family in South Africa May Your Soul Rest in Everlasting Peace Under The Shade of ALLAH |
| Diana, You are the British Evita. We will miss you although we were pains to you,
never will someone be so missed. You were and still are loved by everyone. Be thinking of
you always, Diana-are British Evita. Yours always, a well wisher. |
| We are all very sad that Princess Di has passed away. I was Very shocked and so were
all my family. It was terrible that they took the two young princes to church this morning
in front of all the photographers. They should have been left at home to greive on their
own. It was a horrible tragedy! From Jen and Kel Hopkins |
| we are deeply shocked and stunned at the awful news and hope that the princess has found peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the families involved in this terrible tragedy, especially the two princes. |
| I am chocked about the tragic death of Princess Diana today. Our prairs goes to
Princess Dianas family, especially their two sons Prince William and Prince Harry. The
whole world are stunned, its unbelievable. She brought light into our lifes. We should all
pay tribute to her good work for charity, she helped people that suffered and gave them
hope for the future.She was a warm person concerned about people, she gave her love to
them. She was one of the best ambassadors that Britain could have. And we feel angry
inside of us, we know how the media have been following every footstep of her life. They
even chased her into her death. They should all feel a bit responsible for Princess Dianas
death. Now there will be no more headlines about the Princess in tabloids, finally she can
rest in Peace. BC, Oslo |
| Hi Geraldine, Just following your request to sent a sympathy mesage about the dead of Princess Diane. It is just beyond belief that in the end a person like Princess Diane, who already suffered great stress bythe media (lawfull or unlawfull), had to find her end by the same people who have been harrassing over the last 15 years. We sent our sympathy to the family, esspecially the boys. I just hope that the general public will stop buying all the trash papers who are publishing what these paparazzies are selling. Rgrds, Pieter and Trudy van Horssen |
| I fell a sense of sadness when I heard the news of her death this afternoon. She has
been a great impact to my life eversince. From Singapore, all of us like to sent our condolance to the Princess family. We pray that from now on she will rest in peace. Keep us update with her latest news. |
| In common with millions of others around the world, I feel a great sense of loss and
outrage at Princess Diana's untimely death, which is directly attributable to the
papparazzi and their paymasters. All I wish to say is that all the pious indignation of the politicians, with their impotent threats of action to curb the excesses of the media, will of course come to nothing, and we will have lost one of the great people of our time to greed. The only way that the tabloids can be made to PAY for their irresponsibility is for every person genuinely outraged by this tragedy TO BOYCOTT THE PRESS BY NOT BUYING A SINGLE NEWSPAPER FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE! Rather the money that would have been spent on the purchase of a newspaper, could be better spent on a CONTRIBUTION to one of the many CHARITIES that Diana so enthusiastically supported. I do not have the resources or capability to further this call, but hopefully others may pick it up and disseminate it, so that a real expression of the common people's disgust can be made in a positive way. |
| It is with extreme sorrow that I learned of the untimely death of Diana, Princess of
Wales. Her life was a reflection of a person dedicated to the underprivileged; the
infirmed; the needy; as well as to the millions of loyal subjects of Her Majesty The
Queen. I live in Honolulu, Hawaii, and have had several occasions to be with Diana,
Princess of Wales, and must say from the depths of my heart, that she will be truly
missed. Should the press releases prove true, that this accident was possibly the result of photographers in pursuit of her motor car, it is a further indication of the immediate need to bring forward legislation that can prevent this type of tragedy from ever occuring again. My prayer are with Their Royal Highnesses, The Prince William and The Prince Harry, as well as with the members of the Spencer Family and the entire Royal Family. Clark J. Horan III |

the most incredible Princess of the world, Diana of Wales was a very important woman but

| It absolutely breaks my heart to know the Princess is dead! I remember waking up very early to watch her wedding on TV; I was facinated with her. I guess I still am. How will her sons cope! |
| I am mailing you as I am sure many others are doing, to contribute to your 'Diana
Memorial Page'. I would just like to say that I give my deepest sympathy to her family,
friends and her two beautiful sons, William and Harry. It is a great shame that the world
should lose such a kind, caring person as she was. I was dreadfully shocked at the news
this morning that such a remarkable woman had died. The heart-breaking thing is that she
had only just found happiness in a loving relationship which worked both ways. All that is
left to say at the end of this letter is that I hope the unofficial press have fianally
learn their extremely painful lesson and will learn to let the Monarchy live as normal a
life as possible. Yours Sincerly, G.A.Hunter |

Royal Family and also to the near family of Princess Diana. Also i want to express my
feelings to the people in the U.K., who have to live without a very beautiful and warm

all the royal families in the world alone and let them have their privacy. Yours Faithfully, Ria Berends |

| I don't have much to say...Actually, I don't know what to say. I was shocked by the news. I still don't believe that such an innocent, peaceful woman as the princess is dead. She did so much good for the world; it's not fair that she had to die. The mother of the future king of England is dead. God bless her soul, and her family. She had just started to rebuild her life. Well, I hope the Paparazzi are happy- They've finally got a front page story. |

I heard Diana was in grave condition. I then thought oh my god what if she dies? About a
half an hour later I heard on CNN she had succomed her injuries. I do feel bad mainly for her two children Prince Harry and Prince William.
