Farrah's letter to son read at funeralThe death of Farrah Fawcet was not unexpected as she has been battling cancer for three years but that didn't stop everyone hoping she would pull through.
Farrah's funeral took place this week and saw hundreds of mourners turn up to pay their respects.
Her son Redmond has had many run ins with the law and is currently serving time in prison on drugs charges. He was allowed three hours out of jail in order to attend his mother's funeral.
At the service in LA one of Farrah's closest friends read out a letter the actress had written before she died.
Of her son Farrah said in the letter, "The greatest gift of my life was to be your mother. By leaving you behind I hope you will be able to work out all your troubles and grow as a person."
Her Charlie's Angels co-star, Kate Jackson, attended the service and spoke about her friend afterwards. Kate said that she first saw Farrah at a party, was almost blinded by the most gorgeous, magnificent, glorious girl about my age, who was talking and laughing. I just froze and stared, and I thought to myself, 'Oh God, the competition is really bad around here.' I told her that later when we finally met because we didn’t meet that night - we officially met doing ‘Charlie’s Angels’ - that she was the person that almost made me go home. I told her that she was darn lucky that I was still here to do this show because I almost went home because of her, when I saw her I thought, 'Oh God, I better go home and, you know, be a teacher or something.’"
Before her death Farrah had been filming a documentary about her battle with cancer, it is expected to be shown over here sometime this year. |
