According to Wikipedia she converted to Catholicism before she died. I thought that was the case, but even if she had not I think Mary was sufficiently fond of her to have buried her respectfully at Westminster.

Holbein was a splendid artist.

I love his sketches even more than his finished works.

St. Thomas More (I just realized that our church music director bears more than a passing resemblance to him . . .)

That is fascinating! I must look out for her tomb at Westminster Abbey on my next visit to London. I think it is so much more impressive than St. Paul's. The history just seeps out of the walls!
