Update: Natasha Richardson Laid to Rest at The Insider

Loved ones of actress Natasha Richardson assembled for a private funeral service near her family estate in upstate New York.

Richardson's husband Liam Neeson was one of the pallbearers who carried his wife's casket into St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Millbrook, NY. Among the celebrities spotted in the crowd were Ralph Fiennes, Holly Hunter, Uma Thurman and Laura Linney.

A burial ceremony was then held under a tent constructed at the nearby St. Peter's Cemetery, where Richardson was laid to rest. Family members attending the service included her mother Vanessa Redgrave, sister Joely Richardson and two sons, Micheal and Daniel.

The services on Sunday brought to a close a tragic week in which the Tony Award-winning actress passed away at the age of 45 following a skiing accident in Canada on Monday.

As to be seen in the above photograph (to the right), another pallbearer was Franco Nero, father of Vanessa Redgrave's son Carlo.
My heart goes out to the family. What a waste!
