Angelina Jolie’s Mom Dies at 56

Marcheline Bertrand, French actress and mother of Angelina Jolie, died of ovarian cancer in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre after a 7.5 yearlong battle with cancer. (Age 56 as reported by IMDB.) Brad Pitt, Angie, and her older brother, James Haven, were at the hospital yesterday at the time Bertrand passed away.

Bertrand raised Angie and James after divorcing their father, Jon Voight (Angie was just a toddler at the time).

Our prayers and best wishes to the Pitt and Jolie family. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Women’s Cancer Research Institute at Cedars-Sinai.

I am sorry to hear the news. Losing a parent is like 40 needles hitting into your heart at the same time. In time each heals, except the last one. That last one never heals, leaves its mark for your lifetime and hurts most when you find yourself reaching to the phone to tell your parent a good news.

may heavens be Ms. Bertrand’s new residence.

As genuinely sad as I am at this time, I’m also comforted in the belief that Marcheline was blessed to see Angelina battle her demons and claim victory over them. There’s a part of me that’s convinced Marcheline finally let go knowing her daughter had found purpose and peace and was going to be alright.

God bless them all

My thoughts and prayers go out to Angelina Jolie, her brother and other family members. May God be with her in her time of need. May she be surrounded with the love of Brad Pitt, her children and friends during this difficult time. Angelina Jolie is a good and strong woman and has seen the best and worst of mankind during her UN Work. She has grown to be a strong and caring woman. May God bless Angelina with the love and memory of her devoted mother. Rest in peace Marcheline Bertrand.

God bless Angie Brad James and the kids. Marcheline may rest in peace.
I’m so glad that she was able to be with her grandkids although it was for a while. I’m sure that she left this world happy and fulfilled with her daughter’s happiness.
I just hope this time they will eventually give them the privacy they should have in this difficult time in their life.

Angie has been through a lot of pain herself and she have experienced the suffering of other people who lost their families and they are disadvantaged and they are struggling to survive with her own eyes. She knows how it is. Also Brad’s and James’s love and the love for her children will be a great help during these moments of sorrow. I’m positive that she will eventually rise above it like she is doing with every bad turn in her life. Her mother will always have a special place in her heart and she will never be forgotten. She will always live in her memory.
More power and love to them all!!

Oh, I am sooo sad to hear this news. Angelina was just so close to her mother. Marcheline put up a long tough fight. My prayers go out to all the family. Cancer is just so stealth like, you can be seemingly OK and recovering one day and dead the next day. RIP Marcheline.

Angelina Jolie’s mother dies of cancer

LOS ANGELES – Marcheline Bertrand, actress and mother of Angelina Jolie, has died of cancer, her daughter said Sunday.

Bertrand died Saturday afternoon at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Jolie said in a news release. No age was provided.

Jolie, her older brother, James Haven, and her boyfriend, Brad Pitt, were at the hospital Saturday, according to the news release.

Bertrand, who had small roles in the movies “Lookin’ to Get Out” in 1982 and “The Man Who Loved Women” in 1983, raised Jolie and her brother after divorcing their father, Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, when Jolie was a toddler.

A private funeral was planned.

In lieu of flowers, the family asked that donations be made to the Women’s Cancer Research Institute at Cedars-Sinai.

http://www.csms.edu/2044.html

Condolence to Angie, Brad, Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh and James. May God give them comfort and strength in this time of sorrow. May Marcheline’s soul rest in peace

new year luv. @ 01/28/2007 at 4:56 pm

I cannot imagine the pain of losing a mother, mine has been around for the longest time until i dont even remember how old is she now. God Bless Angie and her family, hope they can get through this. I’m sorry Shiloh and Zahara probably won’t be able to remember their maternal grandmother, Hopefully Maddox would be able to remember the time he spent with Marcheline.

Rest in peace Marcheline, your family loved you very much.

My condolences to the family.

It is never easy to lose a loved one! my condolences and deepest thoughts of sympathy be with them and family!

All my support and prayers for angie and her family..

The only good thing I can see in this situation is that she has Brad and her babies to help her through this. I am not sure of her relationship with Brad’s family, but I am sure they with circle her and help her through this.
I am so sad for her, it’s like I lost my own mother.

jenfannot @ 01/28/2007 at 5:01 pm

I watched the E news hosted by Ryan Seacrest last night(Sat) and his last comments were something like…it’s SAG Sunday night, time to talk to celebrities and he added about asking them what they had for breakfast..and the stupid Guiliana added a little smirk(like..hint hint)..Oh…THOSE TWO ARE JUST VILE and THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES ESP. WHILE THEY WERE TALKING AND SMIRKING, ANGIE AND HER FAMILY WERE DEALING WITH THEIR MOM’S DEATH..SHAME ON THEM. I think Ryan/Guiliana are fakes and both just wants to ride on other people’s popularity bandwagons. I won’t watch E news ever. Maybe I’ll watch the 30 minutes segment that follows that since those girls there are more tolerable.

My deepest sympathy to Angie and family.

My heart is breaking for Angie.

Angie, James, Brad and the children are in my thoughts and prayers.

God Bless

I am still thinking about Marcheline’s death. Yup, cancer is very unpredictable sometimes. My Dad suffered 4 years of cancer & there are times he was so uplifted you think he is not suffering from any ailment then suddenly he succumb. Now we know why…he stayed there long enough because he is waiting for my sister & his grandchildren to arrive here in Canada. After their arrival he got so much energy & after a month he died. I think Marcheline waited 7 years so she can guide Angie to a better future. Now she knows our Angie is in good hands of Brad & happy & after seeing the kids she finally realize her fight to see the betterment of her children is finally here so it’s time for her to go. Such a strong & loving mother. My thoughts & prayers to Ange & james.

Mediterranean @ 01/28/2007 at 5:08 pm

When I read that she was just 56, the saddest memory of my life hit me again, I lost my father to cancer and he was only 53. He fought it for 6 years.

I can imagine what she and her brother are going through right now; it doesn’t matter how old you are when your parent passes away, you just feel like a little bird with a broken wing. You think that you won’t able to fly again, never high sky because you don’t feel safe enough without a parent.

Rest in peace Marcheline in heaven, rest in peace. I am sure that her two children will cherish the memories of her in the rest of their lives and keep her alive.

Angie has her own children to be hugged by. Nobody can replace a parent but now she is luckily a parent.

I am lost in my thoughts.

God bless them.

Let us that know keep this thread about Angie, her Mother, and family.

My deepest Sympathy to Angie and family and may God Bless her with the strenght to get through this sad moment in her life.

“My heart is overflowing with joy with the new arrival of Brad and Angelina’s third child,” Bertrand tells PEOPLE., “Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh are deeply loved children. They have very kind and caring parents who love and support each other in every way.”

My condolences to Angelina and James, very sad news.

I am soo shocked and saddened to hear this news. I feel so horrible for Angie and her brother, James. I know Angelina was so close to her mother, and I don’t even want to imagine what she is going through right now. My best wishes to her and her family. I hope she gets through this very difficult time knowing that her mom will always be with her in her heart. Stay strong for the kids, Angie!! You have a wonderful family who loves and supports you, and with them you’ll get through this!

~~Again, best wishes to Angie, James, and their whole family~~ :(

I am all for ignoring the Haters today. Let’s take it a step further though and ignore them ALWAYS! If we don’t respond, which is what they(actually it is the Chin) want, then they(Chin) will eventually give up.

Condolences to Angelina & James. My prayers to you & your family. I am so sad right now.

It’s saddest news ever to hear since I became to one of Angelina’s fans. Hope God give Angie strength to get through the toughest time of her life. I can’t imagine loosing a parent when the children of mine are still young. Hope Brad give her strongest support. I believe that’ll make them even stronger and bond them tighter. Wish the press can leave the family alone this time around.

He will surround her with his love and help her through it. I am glad he and the children are in her life. This is another life even that will draw them closer together.

Angelina, May God be with you and your family at this time of sorrow.

Tosusie, you’ve made a mistake, Susie is a BAMZSfan.

I’m still in shock. Cancer is a beast, one of my friends died in cancer recently, and for a long time it seemed that she was getting better. She died so suddenly.
I hope Ryan Seacrest and the other idiots in the entertainment media feel ashamed. If they are capable of it.

Mediterranean @ 01/28/2007 at 5:38 pm

I believe that the people who do hate the Jolie-Pitts will not celebrate the death of a parent.

No, I don’t think that they would do that! Not that!

Magika DeSpell @ 01/28/2007 at 5:38 pm

My condolences to Angelina and her family. Since I’ve recently lost my mother from cancer and since I was close to her too & tried my best to please her, I believe I can say that Angelina has done ALL things possible (and even more) to make her mother proud of her and leave this world in peace. Angelina has to make sure she will continue to live up to the standards her mother (and surely herself too) wished for her, providing she keeps being happy. Only that way B. will remain alive.

p.s. eat a little…you’ll still look fine!

I have been visiting this site for the last several weeks and I have found it very entertaining. I have grown into a big fan of both Angelina and Brad. I respect them for what they stand for and for the fact that they act on their convictions and do not just play the media game. I am posting today because I want to join with all decent people who wish Angelina strenght and peace in this her time of loss. I am thankful that she is with Brad and has her own family who I am sure will help to sustain her. I believe that God puts us in certain situations to prepare us for what will come. I agree with a previous poster who feels that Angelina’s experience with the UN will assist her in getting through this difficult time.

May all our strength love and campassion will pass to them!!

My condolences to Angie and her entire family. It’s very sad. I’m glad that she has Brad and James there to help her through her grief.

Going through this will definitely strengthen Angie and Brad’s bond…Prayers for their families.

Thanks Lily. I think many of us has a relative or a friend whom we lost to cancer. This is one of the worst diseases. It must be some belated shock, I’m crying now.

Oh, I am so saddened by this news. I was so hoping that Marcheline would beat the it. This is just so sad. My heart and prayers are with Angie, James, Brad and the children, and all those who loved Marcheline.

Oh, Angie.

It is hard to comprehend such a loss, especially when you’ve had such a cohesive relationship. I, too, lost my mother when she was just 55. To date, it has been and probably will always be, my life’s biggest loss.

With your strength of character and love for the world, the world mourns with you. May you find peace and strength in the love that you have for your children, in your loving and supportive partner, and in your brother James.

Here’s to celebrating your life, Marcheline, and your contribution to this world in the form of your children. Rest in peace.

I am truly sorry for that.

I have to say that when I heard about Marcheline, my stomach throbbed. It brought back my father’s death from cancer, twelve years ago on February 7th. Despite my living with my mom during my childhood, I felt more for my dad. I’m a daddy’s girl, through and through.

Bless BAMZS. Bless James. Bless all Marcheline Bertrand friends and family.

My deepest condolences to Angelina, James, Brad, Maddox, Zarahar and Shiloh. Thoughts and prayers are with them all during this difficult time.

On a brighter note, Marcheline can rest in peace having seen that her beloved daughter, Angie has grown into a wonderful mother. She got to know Brad in the last two years and has every faith that he is a good and strong partner for her daughter and a terrific dad to her grandchildren.

I sincerely hope that the tabloids and other medias have the common decency to let this family mourn in peace! God bless them all!

As genuinely sad as I am at this time, I’m also comforted in the belief that Marcheline was blessed to see Angelina battle her demons and claim victory over them. There’s a part of me that’s convinced Marcheline finally let go knowing her daughter had found purpose and peace and was going to be alright.

God bless them all

medicine….thank God that is something Angie has in her life. ~ LOL

Cancer is really dreadful i have a cousin(just 4), is going through it right now and it pains me to my deepest bone his pain and tears have been so painful to watch sometimes i actually wish i could share his pain .He is just so little and so lovely i call him my litle wonder, I pray ANGIE will find the strength to hold on and everyone around her would remain strong for her and her brother, i lost my dad when i was nine and although i was not close to him i still miss him a whole lot , my mom i just cannot imagine she is my world.
Rest in peace and as i say earth’s loss is heaven’s gain.Marcheline

I, too, am sorry to hear of Ms. Jolie’s loss. My Mom has ovarian cancer, too, and I’ve become an advocate for the Awareness and Education of Ovarian Cancer. This past September, I lobbied on Capitol Hill for the passing of the Johanna’s Law which will allocate $16.5 million towards such a cause. We, NOCC & OCNA, need people such as Ms. Jolie to jump on board with us and let our VOICES BE HEARD. Ovarian Cancer is a SILENT KILLER. Please don’t allow any more “Moms” to die in vain.

Rest in peace, Ms. Bertrand

I’m very shocked.
