Farrah's Service


Farrah Fawcett was beautiful even in death and the program for her funeral has a cover photo of the 70's pin up star smiling and looking full of life.

The back cover is a shot of the back of Farrah as she peeps through a tall wooden door. "At That Hour," a poem by James Joyce is on the inside of the cover and the Order of Service listed Redmond O'Neal doing the first reading from the Bible, Lamentations 3:17-26 and Ryan O'Neal doing the second reading from Wisdom 3:1-9. "To Where You Are," a song written by Richard Marx and Linda Thomspon was played as well as "The Prayer," written by Carole Bayer Sager and David Foster.

O'Neal, the long-time companion of the "Charlie's Angels" star, was one of the pall-bearers and gave a reading at the service at Los Angeles Roman Catholic Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels.

Redmond O'Neal, the 24-year-old son with Fawcett, Griffin O'Neal and Tatum O'Neal, reportedly attended the funeral service. Redmond also gave a bible reading, according to a program made available to the media.

Fellow "Charlie's Angels" star Kate Jackson, former model Cheryl Tiegs and rocker Rod Stewart's ex-wife Alana Stewart were also among the mourners. Fawcett's Los Angeles cancer doctor, Dr. Lawrence Piro, delivered the eulogy with Stewart.

Fawcett's coffin was taken into the church as a quartet of musicians played "Amazing Grace" and Irving Berlin love song "Always", according to the program.
