Farrah Fawcett passed away today after a long battle with anal cancer. She was the same age as my mom -- 62 years young.
I tried to watched Farrah's show, Farrah's Story, but I was so overly emotional I couldn't finish watching it. She really was a strong woman who fought back against her illness.
I was a huge fan of Charlie's Angels and having brown hair, when my friends and I played Charlie's Angels as kids, I was of course Jaclyn Smith. But Farrah, wow -- gorgeous and with such a sweet smile. She made me want hair just like hers. She was a great actress, style icon, and a loving mom and friend -- all this clear from seeing her in interviews and on her documentary.
My heart hurts for her family and loved ones, especially her son Redmond. I cannot imagine losing my mom.
Farrah will be missed.

Farrah will be missed - my hubby was a big fan of hers when he was a kid. How very sad...may she rest in peace.
She was like the first chick to wear hair extensions. How gorgeous she was...I think now she will be in a better place without the pain and in peace.
I watched her documentary, "Farrah's Story." It was very sad but she was sooo courageous! I couldn't imagine how she kept going the way she had. She fought so hard for her life. She's an inspiration to all, no matter what the situation.
I'd been following her battle. And now, she's passed away. RIP Farrah!
I grew up in the 70's,watching "Charlie's Angels",and doing all I could to get my hair to feather back, so I could look like Farrah. What a loss. I understand Ryan O'Neal had just proposed the other,day,and they were going to finally marry. I know he and their family are heartbroken.
Very sad loved her she was my favorite "Charlie's Angels". Very kind soft spoken person blessed with beauty. May she rest in peace.
I knew she had been battling cancer for a while, but I gained such great respect for her while watching "Farrah's Story". Wow! She was an incredible person.
Athough I do like Michael Jackson, I was more saddened by Farrah's passing, she fought so long and hard, and was an inspiraration to so many people. I laughed and cried hard watching Farrah's Story, she was an amazing woman. God truly has an Angel now. May God be with her family and that they came be a source of love and strenghth for each other.
We miss you Farrah!
