Farrah Fawcett's loved ones gathered Friday, the one-year anniversary of her death, to remember the actress. Fawcett's ex-husband, Ryan O'Neal, his daughter, Tatum, and Fawcett and O'Neal's son Redmond visited the former Charlie's Angels star's grave before holding a private celebration for the opening of The Farrah Fawcett Foundation.
"I saw my mom’s gravesite for the first time today," Redmond, who was on a day-pass from a sober living facility where he is undergoing court-ordered drug rehab, told People.com. "I miss my mother so much. I’m glad she’s not suffering anymore. I know she’s looking down on us."
The Farrah Fawcett Foundation was founded to promote funding for alternative methods of cancer research, as Fawcett succumbed to complications from anal cancer last year, after a long battle. She was 62.
"I wish I could talk to her," Ryan, who had planned on re-marrying Fawcett, said. "Having Farrah gone has been very hard. It hurts. I don’t know what Redmond is going through. He is quiet about it, but he must be suffering terribly."
"Dad is an emotional man, and Farrah’s death has taken its toll on him," Tatum added. "But our being able to reconnect as a family is so beautiful. Farrah would be so happy that we’re all here."
