Actress Mia Farrow sat in the front pew of a Brooklyn church Tuesday morning to bid a sad farewell to her adopted daughter Lark Previn, a mother of two who died Christmas Day after a long illness.
Farrow and her family listened intently as a priest at St. Saviour Roman Catholic Church in Park Slope described the 35-year-old Vietnamese-born Previn's brave battle.
"She had dark moments in her life but she put one foot in front of the other and kept going," said the Rev. Timothy Tighe.
"She pushed herself deeply so that she might keep going [for her daughters.]"
The two girls - Sara, 13, and Christine, 12 - sat near their grandmother.
A cause of death was not released, although Previn had been ailing for a decade.
Previn and her sister, Daisy, 34, were the first of Farrow's multi-ethnic gaggle of kids, both adopted and natural born.
Mia Farrow and musician Andrew Previn also adopted the Korean-born Soon-Yi Previn.
Soon-Yi-Previn wound up marrying director Woody Allen - Farrow's one-time companion and the biological father of her son Ronan Farrow - after the affair became public in 1992.
