Farrah Fawcett’s family summoned a priest to conduct last rights on the night of Wednesday, June 24, 2009, according to the New York Daily News. Apparently Fawcett’s bout with cancer has taken a turn for the worst while her closest family and friends were at her bedside. Her fight with cancer goes back to 2006 and has been shown in the NBC documentary, “Farrah’s Story.” Barbara Walters is scheduled to air another story on Fawcett on “20/20″ tomorrow night.
Fawcett is best known for her role in the hit television show, “Charlie’s Angels.” The action series ran for five seasons starting in 1976 and brought Fawcett and the other angels (played by Jaclyn Smith, Cheryl Ladd and Kate Jackson) to the center of the television beauty stage. Never before had such beauty been combined with action and drama outside of the silver screen. Of course my favorite action with Fawcett is the 1976 sci-fi movie “Logan’s Run.” Who can forget her role there as the beautiful blond (read:bimbo) assistant to the laser make-over surgeon? The 62 year old Fawcett’s long-time lover Ryan O’Neal has asked her to marry him again, and according to O’Neal, she has accepted. The couple has one child together, Redmond O’Neal. Only time will tell if this will truly be the final farewell to Farrah Fawcett. Either way she has lived a full life, inspired many and has been an icon for beautiful women the world over.

In 1981,I worked for Wilson Bros.Appliance as a appliance technician trainee and the owner told me he was Farrah's appliance service company.So I told him that i think she is cute and to tell her I want to meet her sometime.About a week later she calls the shop and asks to talk to me.So we talked and I told her how pretty she is and that I really like her a lot and that I would like to see her and spend some time together.I told her I am very sincere and will really be very nice to her if I can see her sometime in the future.She said she will think about it.I waited 9 months for a reply after almost giving up,but she called the shop and said if I am still interested she will be on the Venice Boardwalk on Sunday at 1 PM and if I can find her we can spend some time together.I went to the Boardwalk and found her in 15 minutes.We walked and talked for about an hour.It was the greatest moment of my life.In 1987 I produced a theme song for her entitled "Farrah" it is at Johnelwart.com.the theme song was an attempt to see her again.It worked,but I also wanted her to go steady with me but that failed.i have not seen or heard from her since 1991.I am very sad at her passing.I still do not believe it is true.

Farrah is not dead in the first place and she never was ill in any way.After 45 years on television she figured to get a peaceful retirement,it would be better to fake it.If you look at "Farrah's Story she apparently shaved her head but left a little hair on the top like a Hare Krishna member.Is this normal?In a still face photo of her apparently weeks before her "death"compared to the "Farrah's Story video,her face image of the video shows her face about 25 years younger within days of her "death"than the still shot weeks before her "death" Do people get younger if they have cancer before they "die"She was paid to fake it to supress my music should it ever become popular,while I got 3rd degree skin burns,rotated testicles,a hernia,a testicle cyst and an ulcerated cornea-all gifts from the record companies.
