R.I.P. (Finally)

Filed under: Australiastic > Heath Ledger

The body of Heath Ledger was cremated in Australia on Saturday and his remains were laid to rest.

Michelle Williams read Shakespeare at the service and some of Ledger's favorite songs were played, including the Beatles' Here Comes the Sun.

After the service, mourners gathered at a beachside restaurant and many, including Williams, went fully clothed into the ocean as they watched the sunset.

    Rest in Peace, Heath. Hopefully the media will stop obsessing about digging up dirt about you and you can have some dignity left… I hope your daughter knows that you were overall a good man and a good actor. It's unfortunate that years from now she'll be able to go online and find all this horrible stuff about her dad, all these negative comments, all this hate, all this dirt and media coverage. I feel bad for her in advance. For now she's sheltered in childlike innocence.

    He has finally been laid to rest. Now the media should let him rest in peace and his family and friends mourn in peace. Wonder what would happen if people would media assalt the families of the PAP?? Think that they wouldnt get upset when people are chasing them down making life worse for everyone around them? Sad sad sad

    This is all so surreal. My sympathies go out to his family and friends. I can't believe that he was creamated as well.
