Farrah's Final Farewell, Her Last Letter To Ryan and Redmond
Filed under: Farrah Fawcett
On Tuesday, the funeral for beloved actress and beauty icon Farrah Fawcett was held at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles. Along with her long-time lover Ryan O'Neal and their son, Redmond, who was released from prison for three hours to say goodbye to his mother, dozens of friends and family flooded the church to pay their respects to Farrah.
Many people , spoke of her influence and love on the Hollywood community and her family, but it was her own words that resonated the most with all in attendance.
Farrah had written a final letter to be read at her funeral that addressed the most important men in her life, including Ryan, Redmond, and her father James Fawcett, who she called the "greatest dad around."
For Ryan, she addressed their on/off but thriving 30 year relationship, saying: "When I figure out what it is all about, I can tell you."
To her son, she left a message of hope that he would find his way and conquer the demons that have recently faced him: "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."
Among some of the guests were Charlie's Angels co-star Kate Jackson, best friend Alana Stewart, and model Cheryl Tiegs.

Farrah, you were the best. I am sorry your death was overshadow by someone not deserving….but your rewards will be in Heaven
Prayers to Ryan, Redmond and her Dad and family and friends.
So sweet. The best thing her son could do to honor his mother is to straighten up and become a productive member of society. May she rest in peace.
RIP…The nicest person ever……. i met her….. ♥♥
Farrah was a classy woman from beginning to end.
RIP Angel!
She was such a beautiful soul.
She will be missed.
I hope MJ can one day rip too.
That's so sad. Her poor dad has lost his wife and both daughters in just a few years' time.

mario is a douche!
God bless you, Farrah….
MAY AMERICA'S ANGEL NOW FINALLY REST IN PEACE
Farrah Faucett went heaven and met God, and God gave her one wish. She asked for all the children to be safe. So God killed Michael Jackson.
I got my hair cut like hers, my mother almost shit but it looked the bomb…RIP beautiful lady
To little to late.

Come on Redmond, clean up your act .. in your Mom's memory
.
R.I.P. Farrah
That must have been sad to hear but bless her for writing that letter as her last gesture of love. I'm so sorry that she is gone, but also happy that she's not suffering anymore. I hope that her words to Redmond will be the thing that forces him to turn his life around. He is her legacy. Her memory will live on and she will not be forgotten. Amongst all the coverage of Michael Jackson's death I'm glad, Perez, that you took the time to post this.
Rest in peace.
Didn't Jacklyn Smith attend the funeral?
…Freeze! A post on Farrah? One of the three little girls who went to the police academy? She was beautiful and the critics scoffed at her talent. Then she showed the critics what a true talent she was by starring in 'The Burning Bed'. RIP beauty. Class act.
So sad. Too bad she has been ignored because of MJ. Why does she only have one nose hole??
Such beauty and she had one of the Sweetest demeanor's and presence that I know of in Charlies Angles- or anyone.
For me she was my favorite Angle - out of the original 3.
She's still an Angel, literally. Though Biblically God's children are 'above'
the angels (hey it's in there)… so
Angels should be taking care of her now.lol
Re: Sistah Mary – that's what cancer does
There is room in heaven for everyone! RIP Farrah you were loved.
well, the "final letter" seems evidence of at least one conclusion, that she had about 13 brain cells.
Don't you FOOL's start pretending NOW that you loved her. She has been around for awhile and had been sick and MOST of you idiot's didn't even comment on her. Hell, half of you probably REALLY know nothing except about the fact the Broad was a 'Charlies Angel' and your asses Probably wern't even around to care. So quit your bitchen about MJ's death being covered more than her and shut the fuck up and be greatful b/c poor MJ is constantly being disrespected in death. YOU idot's wanna have something to complain about only b/c the Black man is getting more coverage than the White woman. Just fucking admit it.
she must have written those comments near the end of her life cause they are pretty flat. I would be disappointed if my loved one had only those things to say to me after so many years.
Ryan O'Neal should have shown his respect for
Farrah by wearing a sack over his head at the funeral!!!!!!!!!!
What a sack 'o self-centered sh*t!!!!!!
Re: Sistah Mary – Could it be a Deviated Septum?
Re: Yellow Peeps – AMEN! However Redmond needs to cut Ryan out of his life if he ever hopes to recover! Ryan only cares about himself and he is a TOXIC influence!
