Family, Friends Pay Respects To Natasha Richardson

Yesterday, Natasha Richardson's husband Liam Neeson, their 12- and 13-year-old sons and other relatives were comforted by friends, including Diane Sawyer, Lauren Bacall, and Ralph Fiennes, at the American Irish Historical Society, where a wake was held for the 45-year-old actress. Richardson passed away on Wednesday, after suffering a brain injury while skiing in Quebec on Monday; the Daily Mail reported that Richardson's mother Vanessa Redgrave sang "Edelweiss" before she was taken off life support. Richardson is expected to be buried near her and Neeson's weekend house in upstate New York. Yesterday, the NY Times found a three-hour difference between ambulance records and the ski resort's account, raising questions about whether a quicker response might have changed her condition.
