Sad to read that she passed away.

I had a close contact with her in my 20's. My mother took me with her one day to visit HIH Princess Teenager Worq which she always did once every week or month I don't remember but she accepts visitors to her palace. So my mother told me before we enter her room that I should be polite and should bow down and kiss her shoes (which is normal in our tradition) but after we enter and I saw her beauty and attendants I was forgot all about what my mother told me and when she asked me to come closer to kiss me I did not compromise I went ahead and let her kiss me on my chick. (my mother was mad at me for doing that) Then mother talked to her I don't know what but she was granted a land in one of the best areas in Addis and my mother bowed down several times and off we went. The land was letter on taken by the socialist government.

I have a nice memory about her.
