Farrah Fawcett

By now we're all aware of Farrah Fawcett's passing. On Thursday, June 25, she succumbed to cancer, which she battled for three years. It's an extremely unfortunate situation, but one I know she was prepared for. Her family and friends are now making preparations to pay their last respects on Tuesday, June 30 at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles. The funeral will be a private event, one where those who loved her most will surely celebrate Farrah's life.

Fawcett's career spans from the ultimate pin-up girl to more serious roles such as The Burning Bed that focused on domestic violence. Diving head-on into the character of Francine Hughes, Fawcett gave a face to the violence that millions of women encounter everyday. For this Fawcett joins the ranks of other Women Making Moves. She also went against the naysayers who refused to take her seriously as an actress.

As Farrah Fawcett is laid to rest, I will forever remember her as a woman who created her own path instead of traveling one that was already well-worn. Rest in Peace Farrah.
