Goodbye to an icon

[goldenryan]

It's a shame all of the media's focus is on Michael Jackson and not her.

i was hoping this thread was going to be about michael.
there should be a trade aid of the michael doll too.

My earliest memory of her...

Yes, I feel old today... They say bad news comes in three's and it certainly did - Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, and Michael Jackson. It's just about unreal. All icons lost that close together has got to be a first. Our planet feels a little more cold tonight. I hope their all in peace.

Tell me about it.. I remember when Johnny Carson's hair was first turning grey..

With George Harrison leaving us a few years back.., and worries about Peter Tork's cancer popping up again, I've been pretty depressed over all my 'icons'.

Like Mike Nesmith's song poinantly reminds us.., "I'll remember you..."

Although I don't think the coverage would have been as much (as the MJ coverage) I was looking forward to coming home and watching some retrospectives/news about Farrah but the MJ event just threw her death totally off the front page.
Very sad she got overshadowed on the day we should be remembering her. It won't come again.

There was suppose to be one for Ed McMahon but it got bumped because of Michael.

If it makes you Farrah fans feel any better, TV Guide Channel ran a retrospective last night, while E! was all about Jackson.

Her passing away was sort of a mixed blessing. Of course it's bad that she's gone but she was suffering from a very bad kind of cancer so maybe it was best for her to not suffer anymore. I hope she's in a better place.

RIP Farrah Fawcett, you will be missed.

she was incredible and proved even in her dying days she wanted people to become more aware of teh cancer she said so more research could be done and to possibly save others. thats why she was a true angle. rip farah.

I can't imagine there ever being another like her.
