Thanks again. You don't know how much I enjoy seeing her photos. She was elegant and beautiful. A kind, caring and decent woman.
She said in her last interview "I'd like to be remembered as a decent human being and a caring one." And that is how I remember her.
She was flawless.

The Telegraph
Dial M For Murder (1954)
Director Alfred Hitchcock
Cast Ray Milland, Grace Kelly, Robert Cummings
Plot Ex-tennis pro Tony Wendice (Milland) plans to murder his wife (Kelly) for her money. He blackmails an old college associate to carry out the murder, but when things go wrong he sees a way to turn events around to his advantage.
Hitchcock bought the rights to Frederick Knott?s hit stage play and then hired Knott himself to write the screenplay for the film.
This is unofficially the first Hitchcock ?blonde? film (his series of movies with blonde actresses like Janet Leigh, Tippi Hedren and Kim Novak).
The film was shot in 3D, using low-angle shots with lamps. But there was only a brief original release in 3D, which was followed by the conventional ?flat? release.
The much-anticipated Hitchcock appearance happens in a reunion photograph ? that also includes Jimmy Stewart ? around 15 minutes into the film.
The film has been remade into many movie and TV versions in many countries including the Michael Douglas-starrer A Perfect Murder and the Bollywood potboiler Humraaz.

The 147 foot steel megayacht Zein, formerly owned by the late Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco, is for sale through internet-based yacht brokerage Baja Yachts.
The Zein was built by Camper & Nicholson, in 1928, as the Monica and has an interesting history, having served as a submarine hunter during World War II, before being acquired by Aristotle Onassis.
The Greek shipping magnate presented the yacht to Prince Rainier of Monaco and American actress Grace Kelly, as a wedding present and, renamed Deo Juvante II, she was used for their Mediterranean honeymoon cruise.

50 Years After Wedding, Grace Kelly Mystique Remains
Kelly and Rainier Barely Knew Each Other Before Wedding
Fifty years ago today, one of the most-famous weddings in history took place when Grace Kelly married Monaco's Prince Rainier III.
By marrying into the ancient aristocracy of Europe, the glamorous 26-year-old Hollywood star made the ultimate cultural conquest.
To meet her prince, Kelly arrived in style, sailing to Monaco on the USS Constitution with her triumphant army of bridesmaids, journalists, and a poodle given to her by actor Cary Grant. Kelly and Rainier were virtual strangers, having only met twice before.
Rainier was a 32-year-old bachelor-about-town who had decided it was time to get serious and produce an heir to the throne so his country wouldn't revert to France.
He had first met Kelly when a magazine photographed the two of them together as a publicity stunt. Kelly was annoyed that Rainier was late, and Rainier admitted it wasn't love at first sight.
"I don't really believe in love at first sight," he told Diane Sawyer in 1997. "I think true love has to be based on something."
When asked whether she was the most-beautiful woman he had ever seen, Rainier replied, "Well, surely. Yes. I think probably fairly obvious."
At their civil marriage service, in the historic throne room, Kelly looked tired because she and Rainier, together for just the third time in their lives, had sat up and talked all night.
The next day, at the Catholic ceremony at a cathedral, Kelly looked regal in 450 yards of silk and lace. Already a fashion icon, Kelly was catapulted into a new realm, thanks to her wedding dress.
"The whole thing was made at MGM wardrobe studios under top-secret conditions," said H. Kristina Haugland, associate curator of costume and textiles at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. "Thirty-five people worked on it for six weeks, MGM said, and all of them were sworn to secrecy because everyone wanted to find out what the dress would look like."
The Philadelphia museum is currently exhibiting Kelly's dress and accessories to commemorate the anniversary of the 1956 fairy-tale wedding. Kelly donated her dress to the museum soon after the ceremony, but this is the first time the gown has been on view since it was part of the museum's 1997 exhibit "Best Dressed: 250 Years of Style."
Visitors can also see Kelly's rose point lace-and-pearl wedding shoes. Haugland confirmed a rumor about them.
"I was able to verify one story, and that is that a copper penny was concealed, in fact, by the shoes for good luck," said Haugland, author of "Grace Kelly: Icon of Style to Royal Bride."
"You can't see or feel it. We were able to X-ray the shoes, and indeed that X-ray reveals that penny that's built very comfortably inside the shoe so she would have that luck without having to feel the penny inside of her slipper."
Among Kelly's wedding accessories on display is a tiny prayer book, a gift from a family friend, that she carried on her wedding day.
"It was fairly common for devout brides to carry a small prayer book and Grace Kelly was very devout, and I think she felt that this was in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion," Haugland said.

The Star
WHEN Grace Kelly married Monaco’s Prince Rainier in 1956, Creed was commissioned to capture the essence of the fairy tale wedding. The perfume house came up with Fleurrissimo, which has become a classic. Its beguiling bouquet of rose, tuberose, violet leaves and Florentine iris epitomises the actress who became a princess.
Stories like that abound where Creed fragrances are concerned. Pick any perfume and it is most likely to be linked to some star, historical figure or member of royalty.
For example, Tabarome was created for Winston Churchill and the oldest Creed perfume, Royal English Leather, was made for none other than King George III.
The Creed Private Collection boasts an enviable list of Hollywood’s most glamorous screen icons who had commissioned personal scents for themselves.
Marlene Dietrich ordered the Angelique Encens in 1933, Ava Gardner had the Fleur de The Rose Bulgare created in 1948, and Natalie Wood’s Indian jasmine and Bulgarian rose concoction Jasmal was blended for her in 1959.
Today’s stars just pick out their favourites: Ricky Martin wears Silver Mountain Water while the irresistible Spring Flower is favoured by Julia Roberts and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Paul Newman and Kevin Costner are fans of Millesime Imperial, Natassja Kinski wears Tubereuse Indiana and one of Creed’s bestselling scents, Green Irish Tweed, a classic gentleman’s fragrance, is worn by Richard Gere, Clint Eastwood and George Clooney. Madonna owns a bottle of Fleurrissimo, that lovely fragrance for Grace Kelly.
The Private Collection is now available for sale in traditional tinted glass flacons with ground glass stoppers as presented to the stars all those years ago. A very limited number of perfumes are still custom made upon orders from privileged patrons.
