Having seen my own loved ones suffer with and die from cancer, I can only sense what Farrah’s family and friends are feeling tonight–relief and peace.

It is difficult to say good-bye, especially after a long illness.  But it’s comforting to know that the one who has left us is no longer suffering and is really in a better place. 

I can only vaguely remember Farrah Fawcett from her days on “Charlie’s Angels” and I briefly saw bits and pieces of “The Burning Bed”.  But Farrah was more than just an actress or a pretty face on a poster.  She was a mother.  A lover.  A daughter.  A friend. 

In a way it’s sad that Michael Jackson’s untimely death overshadows her remembrance somewhat but I think Farrah was a private person and would’ve liked it this way–to be overshadowed in death but remembered always.

RIP, FF
