    not only was she beautiful :) pasting in from wikipedia
    "Taylor devoted much time and energy to AIDS-related charities and fundraising. She helped start the American Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR) after the death of her former costar and friend, Rock Hudson. She also created her own AIDS foundation, the Elizabeth Taylor Aids Foundation (ETAF). By 1999, she had helped to raise an estimated US$50 million to fight the disease. In 2006, Taylor commissioned a 37-foot (11 m) "Care Van" equipped with examination tables and X Ray equipment and also donated US$40,000 to the New Orleans Aids task force, a charity designed for the New Orleans population with AIDS and HIV. The donation of the van was made by the Elizabeth Taylor HIV/AIDS Foundation and Macy's.[29]"

    A true movie star and an unbelievable beauty in her youth. But having worked in the HIV/AIDS field myself, I am most impressed with her compassion and generosity towards people with AIDS, particularly when it was a new and controversial issue.

    RIP Dame Elizabeth.

    RIP, Elizabeth.

    I heard today she did not like to go by Liz since it sounded like "hiss".
