With deep sorrow, I mark the passing of my beloved aunt, Princess Irene of Greece.
A woman of quiet strength, deep faith and steadfast devotion to family, her presence was at once gentle and unyielding and her values were not spoken, but lived—expressed in every act of devotion and care for those around her.
Irene was a wellspring of wisdom, loyalty and love, a steady anchor for our family across time. Her loss leaves a silence that cannot be filled, but her memory will remain forever in our hearts.
May she rest in eternal peace, reunited with those she loved.
— Prince Pavlos de Grèce
Due to her mother’s recent surgery in New York, Princess Marie-Chantal will be unable to attend Princess Irene’s burial in Greece, on Monday. Prince Odysseas, currently enrolled in his studies and Princess Olympia will also be absent due to work commitments. The Family shares in mourning and honors the memory of Princess Irene.
The photo you chose of young Princess Irene to accompany CP Pavlos's message is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDo you have a information if the cemetery plot is maybe private property or it is part of the whole complex who is owned by the State?
ReplyDeleteThe Royal cemetery at Tatoi as well as the grounds and the palace are owned by the Greek state and run by the ministry of culture.
