Wow, interesting. I don't think I would go so far as to wear mourning for my favorite historical characters- but it's actually a nice thought.

I loved that article..and in a way, like she says, she did in fact profit from all those souls..so I guess, she does have to pay her yearly respects;) This is great, I'm soo looking forward to a subsequent post on this from you! Thanks:)

It is an interesting subject. Thank you, Ms.Lucy and Matterhorn. It's a lovely idea to mourn historical figures but I think that it's hard enough to cope with the deaths of family members and friends!

I will write more about this subject, Ms.Lucy!
