Natasha Richardson died at 45 on March 18, 2009, two days after suffering a severe brain injury following a fall during a private ski lesson in Quebec. Joely's post, prompted by a recent '90s revival, honored those warm memories.
Natasha and Neeson met while starring in Anna Christie on Broadway, married in New York on July 3, 1994, and shared two sons, Micheál and Daniel.
