A funeral service for actor Ryan O'Neal (1941-2023), who died at the beginning of December at the age of 82 as a result of heart failure, is expected to take place at the end of January. His son, Patrick O'Neal (56), has now announced this on Instagram.

Memorial service for Ryan O'Neal a tribute

"I'm in the process of planning the memorial service for my father for the end of January, and everyone who should be there will be there, and it's going to be great," O'Neal announced. The plan is "a tribute to the man, his family, his love of boxing and his legendary career as an actor". Patrick O'Neal still has "a lot of work" ahead of him, as his father "took about three million photos and saved 700,000 of them".

Ryan O'Neal, who became internationally famous for roles in films such as "Love Story" and "Paper Moon" in the 1970s, was an amateur boxer before his numerous film and series engagements. Most recently, he appeared in the series "Bones", which first aired between 2005 and 2017.
