Heath Ledger's family and friends bid farewell to the actor in an intimate
ceremony yesterday (01/27/08).

The 'Brokeback Mountain' star's body was flown to the Pierce Brothers
Westwood Village Memorial Park and Mortuary in Los Angeles on Saturday
(01/26/08) where his family, ex-fiancée Michelle Williams and actress Naomi
Watts visited to pay their respects.

Ledger's body arrived at the mortuary on Saturday night, where security
personnel guarded the gates and police officers swept the grounds after
closing hours.

Three black SUV's then arrived, believed to be carrying the late star's
father, other relatives, Williams and her and Ledger's two-year-old daughter
Matilda.

They left half an hour later. Watts, who dated the 28-year-old star for two
years until April 2004, was also seen entering the chapel.

Ledger's body will now be shipped to Australia where he will be laid to rest
in his hometown of Perth.

Meanwhile, it has been revealed Ledger may have died of natural causes.
He was found lying naked and face down on the bed of his New York apartment
last Tuesday (01/22/08) surrounded by six different prescription medications
used to treat depression and insomnia.

Though the results of the toxicology reports are not yet complete it has
been reported the toxin levels were so low, it is unlikely the drugs caused
the heart attack which killed him.

The autopsy results failed to find the cause of his heart failure, but found
no evidence of heart disease.

Ledger suffered from insomnia and was jet lagged as he had recently returned
from London, where he had been filming his latest movie, 'The Imaginarium of
Doctor Parnassus'.
