I wonder if you knew that she would die beforehand. She was my healer and I used the heck out of her. I also liked her character. Visually...it was a stunning moment for the time. FMV was a new thing at the time and that scene stood above even the best.
I very much had an emotional trauma upon her death and waited for the entire game for her to be resurrected somehow. I honestly think an opportunity was missed, and I think the ending of FF7 suffers because of it.
