Her funeral was attended by about 50 guests, including close friends and family. Despite previous reports that big stars — like her longtime friend Betty White — were planning to attend the service, the only recognizable celebrity present was Bernadette Peters, who was Mary’s co-star in the 1990 TV movie The Last Best Year.
