Yesterday afternoon the memorial service was held for Farrah Fawcett at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles, and nearly 200 close friends and family paid tribute to the iconic actress.

A bagpiper played "Amazing Grace" to start the service, and afterwards Farrah's son Redmond gave the first reading of the afternoon. Farrah's best friend Alana Stewart and oncologist Dr. Lawrence Piro delivered eulogies, while Ryan O'Neal and Redmond served as pallbearers. Stars such as Joan Collins, Marla Maples, Tatum O'Neal, Farrah's ex-husband Lee Majors, Cheryl Tiegs and Dick Van Patten were also in attendance.

Despite the heartache of losing the Charlie's Angels star, those close to Farrah were able to look back on her life and remember the things that Farrah would have wanted. "[Farrah] never felt sorry for herself during her illness," Stewart said. "She fought cancer furiously...she always seemed so indestructible."



RIP Farrah, you will be missed.

So sad. R.I.P. Farrah

Truly a classy lady. She fought a three year battle and deserved far more coverage for her death than Michael Jackson did.

My money says within a month we'll see Ryan and Alana out together holding hands to "comfort one another". Scumbag

It is nice to see a little coverage of a celebrity who would have given anything to be able to stay alive and be healthy again.

At least Ryan planned a dignified and somewhat private funeral for her. I shutter to think what the Jacksons have planned for Michael's funeral. I'm sure it will be a spectacle, nothing short of a full blown circus.
