Michelle Williams arrived for the memorial service for her former fiancé, Heath Ledger, arm-in-arm with Heath’s sister, Kate.

The service was held at Penrhos College in Perth, Australia. Ledger’s father, Kim, said the service would be followed by a private funeral — he requested privacy and did not reveal the time or location.

“The funeral will be very, very private and there will only be 10 people there, immediate family and nobody else,” he told reporters.

“It’s a pretty sad time. We’re finding it difficult to cope by ourselves, let alone cope with everybody around the world. Having said that, we do really appreciate the outpouring and the emotional support from all over the globe.”

This was one of the most beautiful and moving tributes to a person that I have ever seen. They relished in the pure joy of what his life was all about. The celebration was so loving and fitting for a young man taken entirely too soon.

I love how they all jumped into the water.
