Actress Natasha Richardson will be buried in a private family ceremony near her Millbrook Dutchess County home in New York.
The tragic star’s husband Liam Neeson, their two sons, members of her family and close friends like Matthew Modine and moviemaker Mike Nichols gathered for a wake at the American Irish Historical Society in Manhattan on Friday and they’ll say their farewells to the actress on Sunday.
Police are preparing for traffic congestion and huge crowds as fans head to Millbrook to pay tribute to the late star, who died on Wednesday after suffering a traumatic brain injury while learning to ski in Montreal, Canada.
Broadway theatre bosses paid tribute to the actress on Thursday night by dimming the lights of New York’s theatreland for a minute.
