Summary of Christopher Andersen's The Day Diana Died - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Father Yves Clochard-Bossuet, who had worked for Air France until he joined the priesthood just five years earlier, had been trying to come to terms with that realization for hours. When he was called to the hospital, he thought someone was playing a joke. #2 Father Clochard-Bossuet, who had been sent to administer the Last Rites to Diana, was a Roman Catholic priest.
The decision to have him do so raised eyebrows back in England. Diana was a Protestant, and her son William would one day be the titular head of the Anglican Church. #3 Father Clochard-Bossuet, the priest who had been with Diana at the hospital, prayed for her soul. It would be the last time he gave anyone the Last Rites. #4 The body was kept cool with a air conditioner, and the nurses made sure to keep it that way.
The body was not embalmed, and every effort was made to make it presentable to the many dignitaries who would come to pay their respects.
