R.I.P. to actress Natasha Richardson

According to the Associated Press, tributes have begun to pour in from across the show business generations for Natasha Richardson, the Tony Award-winning actress who died after suffering a head injury on a ski slope.


Actress Judi Dench told the BBC that Richardson was "a really great actress" who had "an incredibly luminous quality, that you seldom see, and a great sense of humor."
"It's just so shocking, really shocking, and I hope that everybody leaves the family quietly to somehow pick up the pieces," Dench said.


Richardson was born in London in 1963, the performing gene inherited not just from her parents (Redgrave and director Tony Richardson), but from her maternal grandparents (Michael Redgrave and Rachel Kempson), an aunt (Lynn Redgrave) and an uncle (Corin Redgrave). Her younger sister, Joely Richardson (Nip/Tuck), also joined the family business.

Richardson was the type of actress who personified the true genuine nature of a beautiful person inside and out. She will definitely be missed.
She is also survived by husband Liam Neeson and two sons Micheal, 13 and Daniel, 12.

This was incredibly sad news and I can not say that enough. My prayers definitely go out to the family members who I'm sure are suffering from this unexpected loss.
