I was so sad today to hear of the passing of Farrah Fawcett who fought a long three year battle with cancer.  It’s hard to believe she was 62. I guess in my mind she was still the young gorgeous blonde who graced my big brother’s bedroom wall for so many years in that little red bathing suit.  

She was also the star of one of my favorite TV shows as a kid. My whole family loved Charlie’s Angels. 

I remember as a kid playing Charlies Angels with my friends on the playground. I always wanted to be Jill, but I had the wrong color hair according to my friends and that I must be Kelly or Sabrina.   Oh how I envied my friend Kim with her long flowing golden  locks, she was always Jill!

Farrah was an icon, probably the first true pop culture icon that I can remember in my lifetime. 

Rest in peace Farrah…. Rest in peace.
