A funeral service for Farrah Fawcett reportedly has been planned to be held at a Catholic cathedral in Los Angeles in the next few days and her son Redmond James O'Neal, who is imprisoned on drugs charges, is expected to be present. Radar Online quotes sources close to the young man as revealing that a removal order allowing Redmond to attend the service has been signed by Commissioner Jane Godfrey.
Still according to those sources, Redmond will be allowed to come to the funeral wearing a suit instead of his prison attire. In related news, Radar Online also reports that Redmond is devastated by the death of his actress mother and has "committed to his sobriety to honor her because he promised he would stay clean for her."
Farrah Fawcett lost her battle against anal cancer, with which she was first diagnosed back in 2006, on Thursday, June 25. She was pronounced dead at 9:28 A.M. PST at Saint John's Hospital in Santa Monica, Calif. where she'd been treated for more than two weeks due to complications for the particular disease. She was 62.
Farrah's longtime partner Ryan O'Neal, who also fathers Redmond James O'Neal, has confirmed the actress' death, telling reporters she received the last rites of the Catholic Church. As of press time, date of the funeral hasn't been announced just yet.
