Friends and family gathered in a small Hudson Valley town on Sunday to say a final farewell to Tony Award-winning actress Natasha Richardson.
Liam Neeson, in a dark suit and sunglasses, was at the head of the casket as he and five other pallbearers carried his wife's coffin into St. Peter's Episcopal Church, near the home where the two married in 1994.
He and Richardson's mother, actress Vanessa Redgrave, waved to the dozens of reporters crowded behind a police barricade on the dirt road leading to the tiny white clapboard church.
The grieving family, including the couple's two sons, Micheal, 13, and Daniel, 12, then paused to allow the media to photograph them in front of church before the service.
Ralph Fiennes, Alan Rickman, Laura Linney, Uma Thurman and Timothy Dalton were among the friends who filed into the church on the chilly spring afternoon.
After a graveside service under a large green tent, the 45-year-old actress was buried in a nearby cemetery, about 80 miles (128 kilometres) north of New York City.
She was laid to rest near the grave of her maternal grandmother, the actress Rachel Kempson, who died while visiting her granddaughter and Neeson at their home in nearby Millbrook in 2003.
Neeson and the Redgrave family, including Richardson's sister, actress Joely Richardson, visited Kempson's grave after the burial.
Richardson died on Wednesday at a Manhattan hospital after falling while skiing Monday at the Mont Tremblant resort in the Canadian province of Quebec.
The New York City medical examiner's office said Richardson suffered from an epidural hematoma, which causes bleeding between the skull and the brain's covering.
She wasn't wearing a helmet when she fell.
Richardson is descended from one of Britain's great acting dynasties but built her own reputation in films such as "Patty Hearst" and "The Handmaid's Tale," as well as for her work on the stage.
She won a Tony for her role in the 1998 revival of "Cabaret."
She co-starred with future husband Neeson in the 1993 revival of Eugene O'Neill's "Anna Christie."
The two married at their secluded Millbrook home the next year.
The famous couple was well known in this area, which counts many celebrities among its part-time residents.
The ceremony on Sunday caps off a grim week during which Neeson greeted a stream of friends and family during a private viewing on Friday at the American Irish Historical Society.
Celebrities paying respects this week included Diane Sawyer, Ethan Hawke and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Theatres on Broadway and London's West End dimmed their lights this week in honour of Richardson.
Her final feature film, "Wild Child," has been released internationally but not in the US, and Universal Pictures said a US release date had not been scheduled.

Putting up a brave face after such an experience is courage.This was Liam Neeson's way of thanking for the outpouring of love and support from everyone.Please do not judge grief.Natasha was one of the most amazing women ever.❤💔🌹
I can't believe it has been more than 11 years. It still feels like it happened yesterday. May God have her in His glory 🙏
Wow! The family seem to be very friendly and appreciative of the support from the media and fans.
Evelyn Brown She was and will always be at the top of my list of greatest entertainers. To me, she and her husband Liam are old school (prior to the 1960s & era) stardom in every sense of the word.
Liam is a class act, still waving to the crown even in the midst of deep grief!
As much as I feel badly for their lack of privacy, it does give the rest of us a chance to pay our respects in a way. The family was so gracious and they really had a right to be irritated. It goes to show you that even with the circumstances they didn't stoop to shoving cameras out of their face or cussing people out. How devastating.
She died of bleeding in the brain. After she hit her head while skiing, she refused help. If only she got help immediately after... they could’ve done an MRI on her and she could’ve went into surgery which would have saved her life. This is so tragic. She was so young and beautiful. Breaks my heart. If anyone ever hits their head hard enough, please don’t ignore it. Go see a doctor.😞
I came here after finding out how Bob Saget died. Brain injuries are a serious deal. Not too long ago a French actor also died from a head injury due to skiing.
Please, we dont know all the details. She may have been beyond help. Dont speculate
@@damonorm7277 I figure she may have thought it wasn't that bad, like it didn't hurt that bad at the time so she refused help. Seems like if i had really hurt she would have went to the hospital.
@damon it was said that if she had received immediate medical care there’s a chance she would have pulled through. Natasha dismissed seeing the doctor and refused to see the paramedics until she started having a really bad headache.
It’s not bad advice.
They call it talk then die. Everything appears fine at first, but when you start to see symptoms it’s already too late
My grandfather died of the same thing. He was hit in the head while driving but remained conscience. He made it home and didn’t seek any help regarding his concussion. He went to bed and soon died.
I loved her as an actress I still watch every movie she's in especially parent trap and maid in Manhattan
Same here !
Me as well! She was ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTFUL in Parent Trap. I miss her. I can’t imagine how her husband and children feel.
Mee too!
Sameee
R.I.P. NATASHA.....Cant believe its been 10 years. Also the press where respectful to say thank you, for once.
Was with my mum when heard this sad news and just Two months later my mum passed away so i remember this so clearly.
Seeing that casket and knowing your loved one is in there is sad beyond belief.
That’s where I lost it 🥺
Their earthly remains are there. Their spirit has moved on.......
She was a beautiful actress 🥺 my grandma also passed away it’s still hard for me but I know she’s watching from above
Rest In Peace Beautiful Natasha~ you are still so sadly missed ~ many years after your tragic death.
I am related to the Redgraves , through ancestry. From one Redgrave to another , I wish you all love ,Peace, and faith during this difficult time.I know that I was proud to Enjoy this gracious woman's work, and her fierce loyalty to Liam. Her son's ,and her entire family. RIP Natasha!
May God Strengthen each and every grieving soul.
Weird flex....l but ok.
Sad
I couldn't imagine sharing such a difficult time in my life with the world. Too much. So sad!
How thoughtful of them to pose for a picture!!
She was so beautiful and young Liam I'm still so sorry for your loss for you to take time for photographers on such a sad day tells me what a good man you are you and your family continue to be in my prayers.
Respectfull
Amen
she was a very good actress.rip
Randy Dodd beautiful too .so sad
I thought that was so generous of the family to pose for a picture for the Press
Liz Block generous??? I found it ODD. Nobody even looked that grief stricken. Liam was smiling and waving. Wtf???? Never saw him break down ONCE!
When something solemn as a funeral gets capitalized it turns hollow
Liz Block that was orribile. I really can’t understand how a son could pose for a fucking picture the day of her mother’s funeral. Terrible.
I agree. Despite their pain, this was incredibly considerate.
Abrielle Horvath You know nothing of his despair. Shame on you for your rude words and judging him. So he's supposed to break down for you?
She was a great actress and a beautiful woman, I was a fan and still am.....truly a great loss! Rest In Peace, Natasha!
Wow since Natasha passed, I'm now seeing her funeral and I'm sad all over again..she was so beautiful, kind, gentle and sweet as is Liam ..to see him wave at the media while being so heart broken tells you what kind of man he is as all his and Natasha's family....so very sad...I shall keep her in my heart forever.
It was sad news back then and still such a loss,especially to her children, husband,and family.
So sad to see this. A pity. She was beautiful like her mom, Vanessa Redgrave. RIP Natasha.
I am so sorry. What a lovely woman.
An angel went on a journey. She was a great actress. Rest in Peace Natasha Richardson.
Alan Rickman giving the woman his scarf because she was cold. So sweet! A very sad situation for Liam and his family. I remember the day I heard of Natasha's passing. What an awful way to die!
Tina Saulnier Alan himself is gone now
Alan was always the gentleman.
Tina Saulnier .
pretty sure that woman is Catherine McCormack from Braveheart handing out the programs.
Tina...How did she die?☹️
This was so sad. I am glad to see her family has survived her loss....
Natasha Richardson was a wonderful actress. I watch the remake of The Parent Trap over and over. She was just a remarkable sweet person in her character. God Rest her soul.. she went right to heaven.
Mis más sinceras condolencias señor Neeson. Un gran abrazo desde éste hermoso país, llamado CHILE.

he did....the only one too......and interesting isnt his brother the commander on the show handmaids tale??
Having to smile for the cameras right after the tragic death of your mother or your wife.
It’s really wrong.
Death is not a photo opportunity
It's just respect
It's not a smile...
It wasn’t a smile, but just a courtesy to the press, because they are public figures and it’s kind of their obligation to recognize the presence of the press...Liam Neeson and family truly grieved the devastating loss of Natasha.
You are so extremely wrong. Did you see them smile. Its call a word that i don't think you have at all *respect*
Respect to her fans respect to the media. You heard each an everyone thank Liam an the family.
Im on here to pay my respects as her an her mother are stunning beautiful women inside an out an great Actor's.
Your on here because your toxic an want to make trouble.
Their is a time an a place for everything an i think you sbould learn that before you grow into a lonely grumpy old person.. look after your health an start being nice to people 😘
Its something wronh with them.Youre right
Liam is such a gentleman. So gracious
So beautiful and this was so sad .She’s buried in a little cemetery in up state NY I believe near her grandmother. She has a beautiful marker of a sculptured image of herself
still breaks my heart 😭💔
La conoscevo solo ed esclusivamente per alcuni suoi film...era così incantevole (forse merito anche della doppiatrice italiana) che non poteva non esserlo anche nella realtà.
Riposi in pace.
I heard that this was the love of his life and that they had such a wonderful marriage. So, so sad!
That this?!?...she was...Natasha
Did they have children together?
@@charliecharlton9782 Two sons I believe
I LOVED HER AS ACTRESSS HER MOVIES TRULY TALENTED GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN REST IN HEAVENLY POWER
I miss natasha's presence in this world. She was beautiful, a wonderful actress and the nicest woman!
Mrs. Richardson's funeral reminds me of my Aunt Christie,😢😢😢 who had died from cancer last Wednesday, and I went to her funeral, also dressed in black. I'll miss my aunt, who is now in Heaven with my grandfather and her previous cats.
She was so beautiful very sad
Poor liam I am truly sorry for your loss and praying for you. We all love you here. U r truly the best actor of all time
Un descanso merecido para excepcional mujer, orgullosa del valor ético y moral de la familia. Sintiendo el dolor del humano perfecto Liam Neeson
What a great loss. She was a very beautiful woman, and a great actress...she is truly missed and will be remembered forever❤️
Heartbreakingly beautiful🙏🕊
I agree family things like this is sad enough they don’t need people taking pictures 💔
Such a enormous loss -- I was looking forward to watching her career unfold.
🌈🌹🙏🙏 That was a sad day for everyone who loved this couple so sad🙏🌈🙏🙏
May she be resting peacefully. Loved her in Parent Trap as Elizabeth James. Peace to her family. ❤
May God rest her soul in peace. رحمة الله عليها، اللهم إغفرلها و إرحمها
Hashem mmm
Me encanta, su papel en juego de gemelas, ella era tan bella y elegante.
So sorry for their loss. She was a good actress and will be missed by all. Rest in Peace. God bless. 🙏
I love Liam nelson and his family...natal have was amazing great loss...bless them with love...praying for peace
Qué bueno que compartieron de buena gana con la prensa y ellos( la prensa) se portaron en forma respetuosa..así se hacen las cosas muy bien...y que bueno que Liam dejo que algo que están privado he íntimo fuera mostrado para tantas personas que tienen un aprecio por ellos por ser muy buenos actores...así debería ser con todos los famosos....
Gracias por decirlo en español
It even reminds me of my grandfather's funeral that I went to up in Utah with my father.
Still remembering Natasha in 2018 RIP we still love you.
If she had only gone to the hospital when she fell.
I know...Such a shame.
she did, but it took some time and they lost the goldentime and she died.
If only the ambulance driver had taken her to the hospital anyway for a thorough checkup.
I'm hesitant to think that even going to the hospital right away would have helped. So very heartbreaking. She was one in a million.
She did, they sent her home and then when she got back to the hotel she knew something was wrong and then emergency services came to get her but it was too late, it was her time!
Me chamo Richardson e todas as vezes que vejo um filme dela me emociono.
NINGUÉM DO BRASIL ?!
NINGUÉM SABE O QUANTO O BRASIL TEM AMOR POR VC 😍
DESCANSE EM PAZ
Eu soube no mesmo dia da morte dela
@@deluziacosta3651 que dia ela morrru? 2009 DE.....

Rest In Power Natasha Richardson
So sad for the Richardson, Redgrave, and Neeson Family. RIP Natasha!
So sad ! She was beautiful ♥️🙏🌹

I don't think Liam Neeson will ever heal from losing his wife.
She was Incredible actress and human being.
God bless your family. 😢💐
Rest in peace beautiful woman😢❤
Surprise to see Liam never wore a tie ,, I wore a yellow one at my wife's funeral ,, she said bright colours only ,, R I P my love
Que triste nisiquiera sabía me vine enterar ahora :( espero que este descansando en paz se fue muy joven de este mundo, muy lamentable la verdad..
que bunitinho. mesmo na morte ele comprimentou os reportes. qud educacao!!😍 muito triste a morte da esposa dele😭
Omg that sad 😞 I’m really sorry Liam, she was amazing woman and you are a gentleman ❤️
She is buried alongside her aunt, actress Lynn Redgrave, in Dutchess County, New York.
Lamentable perdida. Gran actriz
Even if I didn't like the newer "Parent Trap" movie, my favorite things about it are Natasha Richardson's brilliant acting, and Shonen Knife's Alternative Indie cover of a folk song "Top of the World" by the Carpenters originally.
Heartbreaking.R.I.P.Natasha.
She was such a nice person. her family will miss her forever.

This is so sad. Too bad they couldn't get away from prying eyes. I give Liam credit for beings nice about it. RIP Natasha. Liam and Natasha were so much in love, and now she's gone. I hope that eventually he found a measure of peace and comfort. But I can't see anyone getting over something like this completely. When a loved one dies, sometimes a part of you goes with them.
Liam and family my condolences!!
Es una pena muy grande ,No te olvido Natasha Richardson
Liam un gran abrazo y fortaleza desde Panamá
Que hermosa mujer es paz descanse
Loving family x
15 years today 😢 🤧
Natasha was an awesome person
A Great Loss ! I remember when this tragic accident happened. So sad
LÍAN NEESON Y NATASHA un amor eterno 🌷 por100pre ♥️🌿💙
God always takes the best
Todo mi Amor 🌺🌹
🙏💖
I just saw today that Natasha is gone wow i love her when she move her lips when she talk rip tasha
Hearing the camera guys talking and laughing to them selves made me livid! There needs to be fucking boundaries sometimes!! This isn’t a famous person dealing with his famous wife’s death! These are PEOPLE. HUMAN BEINGS! Families That are trying to cope with one of the most traumatic, sad, horrible things that could happen in a persons life. Let them be.
May She RIP 🙏😮💨😔😢💖💟💜💕 May God be with you Liam. ☹
Me Acabo De Enterar... Que Tristeza Tan Grande, Yo Conoci A Natasha Richardson En The Parent Trip...
Why would anyone ask a grieving family to pose for a picture during a funeral?
In my twenties, I did a little bit ok ski and stopped. I restarted in my late forties, and had a couple of bad falls: luckily, I always wear an helmet. I stopped because of the falls on my head(injured my teeth), and one of my knee is almost finish. No one is to blame in that death but, it certainly shows that an helmet is necessary in ski.
Woman is Great Angel Forever Freedom ❤️🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️
Rest in Peace lNever For gotten your huge Fan
R.I.P. beautiful angel
I dont watch the news at all so im very shocked by this. So many people dying far to soon. Rip dear lady.
Lo siento Liam duele perder a un ser amado en la muerte.... Siento su dolor......lo Lamento
Nossa muito triste.
Lamentável. Sou fã dos dois
I still miss her.
So enduring
Muita frieza para um funeral, realmente é uma cultura bem diferente.
