38-year old Corey Haim was laid to rest today in Toronto, Canada, but his friend and former co-star Corey Feldman did not attend.

Instead, Feldman posted a heartfelt letter to Haim on his personal website entitled, A Letter For The Grave.

In the note, Feldman explains why he did not attend today's service:

    "First off I am so sorry I am not there with you today. By that I mean my physical body is not with your physical body. However you know that my heart is right at your side. You also know the only reason I am truly not there is out of respect for your mother and her wishes to minimize the media attention as much as possible."

He also addresses their history with battling inner demons:

    "My mission in life became saving yours. I never gave up, I tried …I walked away, but I always came back, to let you know I was there. In a dark and lonely world with spiteful angry people we always understood each others pain."

Read the entire letter after the jump.



A LETTER FOR THE GRAVE… (an open letter to Corey Haim)

Dear Corey.,

This is for you on the day of your funeral. First off I am so sorry I am not there with you today. By that I mean my physical body is not with your physical body. However you know that my heart is right at your side. You also know the only reason I am truly not there is out of respect for your mother and her wishes to minimize the media attention as much as possible. I want your family to have a calm peaceful day. Hopefully we will not see one shot of the funeral on the news. Just know I am at home today projecting positive energy for you and your passing.

I miss you so much already. When I think of something funny I don’t know who to tell it to. I find myself trying to call you but then remember your not there. I think about the new movies we will soon be doing together and then suddenly realise that the dream is over. I always feared this day would come, and often rehearsed how to face it. But once confronted with the reality of it, it’s so much more painful than I could have ever imagined. Nobody will ever understand the brotherhood we shared. Nobody will ever get the inside jokes we told. Nobody will understand the magic of 22/222 . Nobody will ever know how to do the secret Corey handshake. Nobody will ever make me laugh as hard as you did. Nobody will ever make me fight as hard as you did. Nobody will ever challenge me the way you did. Nobody will ever need me the way you did.

My mission in life became saving yours. I never gave up, I tried …I walked away, but I always came back, to let you know I was there. In a dark and lonely world with spiteful angry people we always understood each others pain. I have been so hounded by the media and barraged with condolences since your death that I have not been given my own time to grief. I was still in shock while cameras were chasing me down the street looking for my feelings on the matter. When I did Larry King I could barely form sentences, but knew I had to be strong to send a message.

I never knew your death would have such a huge impact on the world. I learned something Corey, there are a lot of people out there who really love you, and appreciate the joy you have brough tho their hearts. I only wish you could see the way the world is mourning over your absence. I wish you could see how big the story is. I wish you could see your face finally filling the cover of People magazine and Entertainment Weekly! That would have meant so much to you. It is such a shame they all had to wait until you were gone to give you the respect you were due as an actor which is what you truly were. The great Canadian actor Corey Haim! I love you and I will forever keep that ring close to my heart. I will do my very best to help give you a memorial that is a celebration of your life the way you would have wanted it…..with everybody laughing and rocking out!

My heart is so broken and I know there are so many who feel the same way I do. We will remember your spirit and your fans will help me keep your legacy alive.

I pray that you are safe and warm and finally filled with peace.

I love you

CF Core Feldog DAWG C-DOG KID and every other name you used to call me…..dine!

I'm sorry. Did Corey Feldman say he wasn't attending the funeral because he wanted to minimize the media attention. Is this guy serious? Or did Corey Feldman become some sort of big star while I was asleep last night?

IS HE LOOKING FOR ATTENTION

Corey Haim had a sweetness and a rare honesty about him that was deeply touching. Not once did he lie about his drug problem or blame anyone else for it but himself. Cory Feldman has his flaws but his love for his friend is not one of them. Rest in peace Corey knowing how much you were loved.

Corey Haim had a kindness and gentleness about him that will be missed. He had a rare honesty in the sense thathe never denied his drug use and never blamed anyone but himself for using drugs. Corey Feldman is a flawed human being as we all are but loving his friend and expressing his grief is expected and respected. Rest in peace Corey we will miss you.

Haim's mother asked him not to attend because it was a closed family affair. And then invited 200 of his closest friends, EXCEPT for Feldman. This stinks like rotten fish. Mom is a frikkin bitch but Cory is too much the man to explain or blame. Putting it all on himself.

they were a great pair!! they really loved each other like brothers!! feldman tried his best to get him clean and sober, but it didn't work!! only an addict can do that for himself!! rip corey!!!

It is sad that he died. But maybe he was way beyond help. There is only so much other people can do to try and help another get clean and stay clean. It is sad because he had everything but wasted it on drugs. I'm not judging Corey by any means. I hope he finds the peace he much deserved.







This part is optional!
