LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
The funeral for Farrah Fawcett will take place on Tuesday, Access Hollywood has learned.
Farrah, who died on Thursday morning after a long battle with cancer, will be laid to rest in a private ceremony in Los Angeles on Tuesday at 4 PM PST, CNS reported.
The service will be held at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, according to the Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles.
“After a long and brave battle with cancer, our beloved Farrah has passed away,” Farrah’s longtime companion, Ryan O’Neal, said in a statement to Access following the actress’ death. “Although this is an extremely difficult time for her family and friends, we take comfort in the beautiful times that we shared with Farrah over the years and the knowledge that her life brought joy to so many people around the world.”
O’Neal, along with Farrah’s good friend Alana Stewart, friend and hairdresser Mela Murphy and her doctor Lawrence Piro, were at Farrah’s bedside when she passed.
