Family, friends farewell Heath Ledger

A private funeral for actor Heath Ledger was held in Perth today. Ledger's father Kim Ledger said the funeral would be limited to 10 people, and would be held today at Penrhos College in Como, south of Perth. Mr Ledger fronted a large media pack in Perth today and told them the media would be welcome to take photos of people arriving for the funeral at the exclusive girls' school. "It's a pretty sad time and we are finding it difficult to cope by ourselves,'' Mr Ledger said. "The funeral will be very, very private and there will only be 10 people there, immediate family and nobody else.'' Mr Ledger said the family appreciated the massive outpouring of grief from the public over Ledger's death, and the support they had received from family and friends. The time of the funeral was not revealed. While arrangements have been made to allow the media to photograph those arriving for the service, Mr Ledger asked the media to respect the family's privacy.
