Farrah Fawcett to be laid to rest on Tuesday

Washington (ANI): Veteran actress Farrah Fawcett, who lost her battle to anal cancer, will be laid to rest on Tuesday, June 30. The former 'Charlie's Angels star' passed away just hours before King of pop Michael Jackson died on Thursday.

She will be laid to rest in a private ceremony open to mourners by invitation only, reports People magazine. According to sources, Fawcett's longtime partner Ryan O'Neal is handling arrangements. O'Neal and Fawcett had planned special costumes to wear at their wedding before the late actress passed away.

She had accepted her long-time partner's proposal in the weeks leading up to her death and the pair had hoped to wed as soon as her health would allow her to attend a ceremony and say "I do".
