Diana, Princess of Wales--I cannot believe it will be 7 years on August 31st. I also miss Princess Grace, The Queen Mum, and King Olav.

Default Favorite Deceased Royals
The revised board seems to have more about historical figures such as the Tsarina Alexandra.

Mine are the Empresses Eugenie, Elisabeth (Sisi), and Mariya Fyodorovna (Dagmar of Denmark, spellings of her Russian name vary so correctness is not guaranteed), and Queen Alexandra.

Favorites among the more recent royals are King George VI and Queen Mother Elizabeth (they assumed the throne in difficult circumstances and went on to serve their country brilliantly), Princess Grace of Philadelphia, and Princess Margaret.
