The Dutch Queen Mother, Her Royal Highness Princess Juliana passed away early on Saturday, 20 March 2004. She died in her sleep at ten to six in the morning.

Despite her abdication in 1980, despite not being much of a Royalist myself, I always thought of her as our real queen. She brought our Royals closer to the people, seemed headstrong yet kind and always slightly mad, like a proper monarch.
