Hollywood farewell to star Tony Curtis

Celebrities, fans, friends and family members last night said a final farewell to Tony Curtis during a funeral service celebrating the movie star's life.

Hundreds of guests stood as the service began at a funeral chapel in Las Vegas.

Curtis, 85, died last Wednesday of cardiac arrest at his home in Henderson.

Long-time friend and pall bearer Gene Kilroy said Curtis' sixth wife, Jill Curtis, would give a eulogy for her husband of 16 years.

A crowd gathered outside well before the funeral.
