Fawcett started her career guest starring on TV shows like "I Dream of Jeannie" and "The Flying Nun." Through this work she met Lee Majors, the "Six Million Dollar Man." The pair were married from 1973–1982, though they were separated from 1979 on.

She brightened our world with her smile and beauty...with the death of so many of our icons, it is a reminder that time and chance happen to all, no matter how beautiful or talented. She made the most of her time here, and I appreciate memories. My beautiful niece is named after her, so I will be thinking of her for many years to come.

What a strong woman she was. To have allowed her documentary be made while enduring the pain and fear of fighting cancer is amazing.
I feel we grew up together, I certainly changed my hairstyle to match hers, and her poster was proudly hung in my son's bedroom.
Many thoughts and peaceful wishes go out to her family and friends at this most terrible time.

I can't stand how the death of the freak pushed poor Farrah off the front page. Sure he was a pop icon, but so was she.

I'm sure there was more shock and interest in his death, but that shouldn't take away from our honoring and remembering the iconic beauty who has graced so many bedroom walls.

Farrah, you were a fox to the very end, and we will miss you!

I am so sad . . . I feel as though I grew up with her and the other Angels . . . she was so brave, beautiful and talented . . .

RIP Farrah . . .

Two Icons, dying the same day, so strange, and yet I posted this song here, because I know Farrah Knew Michael and he knew her, and I hope her pasing didn't push him over the edge this morning.

I'm in tears having just watched Ryan O'Neal's interview with Barbara Walters.
Farrah was a brave and fearless in the face of such ravaging disease.
A beautiful and loving woman who will be sorely missed.
Rest in peace angel, and thank you for all the years of entertainment you gave to us.

Farrah was beautiful. She was my favorite angel. Rest in Peace.

[Agentlady007]

( That's why they needed to two brunettes to balance her perfect blonde image.)

[KevinMast]

Good bye sweet, sweet angel.

She surprised us all when she turned out to be a gifted actress after all. She was also a gifted and committed artist. I hope she will have a showing of her work, so that she can get the recognition she deserves.

How many times I stood in front of my bathroom mirror blow drying my hair to make it look like Farrah Fawcett's. I don't know one girl in my high school who didn't envy her beauty. And despite the fame for her beauty, she was a really talented actress.

RIP Ms. Fawcett (Mrs. Ryan?)

[rzan1]

I know. We all envied her. That smile and that hair. She was also such a sweet person to the people around her. I am sorry she suffered so much at the end of her life.

[jazzifay]

She was beautiful and fought a brave battle. May she rest in peace.

[Agentlady007]

I can't wait until this battle is an aftermath from stem cell research, where by the current breakthrough USa information available for early detection goew into effect, so that we can pre-manufacture in a post modern scientific way, where it does not effect any embrios, the cure.
God Help Cancer...! ! ! I've seen too many people I love die from it; Bone Cancer affected two of my loved ones, and it was fast and painful I heard. No one should suffer. WHY CAN'T THE MEDICAL INDUSTRY SPEAK UP!

Goodbye, my fav all-American girl.
