Does it bother you to know....

I'm going to wear my Beskozirka all day, and have a vigil.

Took a quick pop over to Wikipedia.  A sailor cap.

Haha yes, a Russian Tally cap. Donald duck style, with the cryllic name of the fleet on it. Looks just like Alexei's but it has a different cockade (And it's the black winter uniform)

Don't forget about Dr. Botkin, Demidova, Kharitonov, and Trupp. So many do. Just because they weren't royalty doesn't make their deaths any less tragic than the deaths of the IF.

Indeed clock, it's so fitting that  all  those who faced death together in the cellar and were hidden in pigs meadow,  are still together in the cathedral of St. Pete and Paul. I'm grateful  that those who were with the family  and most of the family have been laid to rest  with full religious  and civil rights ...and I hope for the day when the last two can join them. The family,  of course, don't need this to be together in spirit . Nothing could keep them from that . But it's  the right thing to do by them and I hope for it.

The NAOTMAA are my most favorite royal family of all time!
It’s soo sad that today it is their 92nd death anniversary. I know they are so very happy on where they are now (in Heaven). They all smile dearly to us, and in their hearts they thank us for loving them very much still although a long time ago has already passed since they left this world. They also love us back, very, very much ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Those hearts are from them ; ) Aside from sending us their love, they also send unlimited number of kisses.
For their faithful servants, they’re also very happy in Heaven. I am very thankful to them for they stayed loyal to them until the end. I salute to them all.

I LOVE ALL OF THEM VERY, VERY MUCH, ALWAYS & FOREVER

Sending them prayers and I hope even today I can see them,

Shammie, I know the truth of your words...particularly  when I paint them .

[Denushka_89]

Rest in peace my dears Nicholas, Alexandra, Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, Alexei. And, of course, Eugene Botkin, Anna Demidova, Ivan Kharithonov, Alexei Trupp. I ligth a candle to they and stay in silence for some minutes. This is my mourning to this dear souls. I love you NAOTMAA. With all my heart, feeling. I cant belive this is already 92 years.

Once, rest in peace.

With all my respect and affection,
Denise ♥

PS: Shammie, I second your words, they are true and very beautiful.

I didn't forget about them, Lisa.  I mentioned them in my article.

May God bless and keep the Imperial Family and those who died with them in that horrible day.

May I add to the list Grand Duchess Elizabeth Fyodorovna, the Konstantinovichi brothers and everyone else who were murdered in that bloody day.
Rest in Peace

[Gorseheart]

May God keep them all!

[Olga Maria]

Today is St. Grand Duchess Elisabeth Feodorovna’s, the Konstantinovich brothers’, GD Serge Mikhailovich’s and Prince Vladimir Paley’s 92nd Death Anniversary. They all died in a mine shaft in Alpayevsk. I’m also deeply saddened about her death and those who were with her. They are all now in Heaven, very happy, reunited with their beloved ones, and closer to God, the Most Supreme Happiness.
They all bless us, and pray with us together whenever we pray.
I miss Ella very much, too, and whenever I look at my avatar and banner, I find it hard to bear that such a beautiful life, that shone light to many who were blinded by the darkness of anarchy, would end in a hideous early morning darkness, without ever seeing the glory of sunrise.

[Kalafrana]

Can we add Klementi Nagorny, Prince Vassili Dolgoruky, General Tatischev and all the others who were killed separately from the Romanovs but because of their loyalty to them.

Ann

[blessOTMA]

Indeed, Ann. It's remarkable when one reflects on the depth of love and loyalty the family inspired.
 Shammie, thank you for adding Ella and the young Romanov Grand Dukes who died with her .

[TimM]

 Klementi Nagorny, he was that sailor who was protecting Alexei.   Loyal to the end, he was a good man.
