Farrah Dead at Age 62

I just read where Farrah Fawcett's two-year struggle with anal cancer ended this morning.

Well, God rest her soul. She fought it with everything she had.

I heard this not long ago Cse, so very sad but didn't she have breast cancer?
I am a wee bit confused now.

Nope - anal cancer.

Very sad and yes she did fight a hard fight. I think I read that she and Ryan O'Neal were married in the last few days.

Rest in peace.

You are right Steph I heard that just a while ago that he proposed to her on her death bed.
Such a wonderful story should come out of this tragedy.
They loved each other so much.
Thanks for correcting me. Not sure where I got the breast cancer from

You are right - I found articles about their plan to marry soon "as soon as she can say I do" . . . but I'll bet she was too sick at the end.

Regardless - he did stay by her side throughout her illness.

siri, would you please consider moving this thread to current events?
i'm thinking it would be more publicized there, as it should...

So interesting - in my local paper all the comments are from Boomer men who had that lovely poster of Farrah on their wall as teens.

Very sweet really.

I did have the "Farrah" hairdo in my younger days - as did most young women. Too bad I didn't look like her.
