LOS ANGELES — The life of "Charlie’s Angels” star Farrah Fawcett was celebrated Tuesday at a private funeral in the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels.
Her longtime companion, Ryan O’Neal, was among pallbearers who accompanied the casket, covered in yellow and orange flowers, into the Roman Catholic cathedral.
Fawcett’s friend Alana Stewart and "Charlie’s Angels” co-star Kate Jackson were among early arrivals before the hearse pulled up, accompanied by 10 motorcycle officers.
Fans and news media watched from across a street. The service was closed to the public.
Fawcett died Thursday at age 62 after a public battle with cancer. O’Neal and Stewart were at her side.
Diagnosed with a rare cancer in 2006, Fawcett’s battle with the disease was documented in "Farrah’s Story,” which aired last month on NBC.
Stewart, a producer of the documentary, said Fawcett was "much more than a friend; she was my sister.”
