You're welcome Ianna.. Your second pic is really cute.....
 
You've all done here a great tribute to a great man. Even though a year has passed by, he'll always be missed.
 
Tomorrow 18.30 (thursday) will be his memorial mass, which will be transmitted to all MC churches (don't know whether TMC will do the same, but you might find some clips on TF1 and France 2 news later in the evening).

That's right, Monaco is now very proud of his lovely and sweet Prince Rainier III :)

What a great man!!! He brought Monaco to attention on the world stage.
Every major decision he made (marriage ,commercial,etc) was made with the thought for Monaco's best interests behind it....
He was punctual and stood for religious principals.

Monaco must miss him terribly--you don't realize what you've got till its gone...

A well known saying is "Greatness always skips a generation"
This can be appied to the current Prince
 
Don't think that's true at all. I'm willing to give him a chance atleast.:rolleyes:

The flowers w/ his initials were very pretty.
 
Gorgeous pictures of Rainier.

How long after Louis II's passing was Rainier enthroned? Was there an official three month mourning period? Did they have to do some kind of "passing rite" for Charlotte or was just a statement released? It was such a unique situation, I'd really enjoy as much information as everyone can share.

As I recall, no one thought much of Rainier until he married Grace and chased out Onassis. I don't recall the "Builder Prince" moniker until the 1960's. Albert at least has made some strides from the go as "the Green Prince".
