    She is a Symbol of courage
    I will do it too.I admire Elizabeth very much she was a hero, during her battle has to face the worse betrayal her life, which no doubts contribute her struggle. I am thankful to her for openness about her disease giving us example of courage and grace.

    RIP .. Elizabeth.

    Mine will stay lit also
    Mine will stay lit also until she is buried. She was more amazing than I even thought she was. So much on tv and the papers have really showed what a great woman she was.
