Friends and relatives of the Kennedy family gathered Saturday to remember the life of Mary Richardson Kennedy at St. Patrick’s Church in Bedford, N.Y. Her casket arrived just after 10 a.m., and was carried into the church by two of her children, one of her sisters, and the family gardener who discovered her body. Caroline Kennedy and Joe Kennedy attended the service, as did friends and celebrities including Larry David, Dan Aykroyd, and Chevy Chase. “She just lived her life to the fullest,” tearful sister-in-law Kerry Kennedy said. “She did everything she could for her friends and she loved her children more than anything else.” After Kennedy’s suicide was discovered Wednesday, a feud erupted between her relatives and the Kennedys over the memorial services.
