Is it normal to feel profoundedly sad that carrie fisher princess leia died

I mean I didn't know her but I am sitting here bawling man like a weird motherfucker.I really regret not saying hi to her that one time when she was at comic con when I had the chance because I was way too intimidated.So much of my life is tied to star wars and I could relate to her addiction issues and other struggles and wish this was some kind of sick joke.
