Bickering KENNEDYS stop feuding to say farewell to MARY RICHARDSON KENNEDY at star-studded funeral.
Mary Richardson Kennedy’s bickering family called a ceasefire on Saturday to mourn the tragic mom’s death.
The later Mary Kennedy’s siblings took her estranged husband Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to court on Thursday over burial rights to her body.
On Friday Robert – who filed for divorce in 2010 – won and was granted the right to arrange her funeral service near his estranged wife's home in Bedford, New York and to bury her in HyannisPort, Massachusetts near the Kennedy Family compound.
Mary committed suicide by hanging herself, tragically ending a life marred with depression, alcohol abuse and rehab.
Family and friends attended the funeral that took place at St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church where all four of Mary’s children with Robert had their First Communion.
Mourners included Kennedy cousin Maria Shriver, John McEnroe, Larry David, Chelsea Handler, Edward James Olmos, Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd.
Robert’s sister Kerry Kennedy, 52, paid an emotional tribute, telling mourners that the late architect was her “very best friend.”
Grief-stricken Kerry remembered the mother-of-four whom she met at boarding school when they were teenagers.
“She was brilliant and she was beautiful and she cared so very, very deeply about everybody around her,” Kerry Kennedy said. I just think that she was really an angel who was brought to us, to live with us here on earth.
“And I think God just brought her back up to heaven and said: ‘You don’t have to fight for me anymore’.”
“Mary suffered from depression and it’s a disease that so many, many, many Americans suffer from. She was battling, battling those demons and keeping them out of the paradise that was Mary.”
Mary Kennedy's siblings are planning their own memorial to take place Monday evening in Manhattan, RadarOnline.com reported.
