Stern, Birkhead Arrive at Anna's Funeral Service

Howard K. Stern just arrived at the church in the Bahamas where the funeral service for Anna Nicole Smith will take place, and MSNBC's Rita Cosby reports that the lawyer/companion alighted to "big jeers" by the assembled crowd.

Larry Birkhead entered the service shortly before Stern, though Anna's mom Virgie Arthur -- as was the case throughout the legal proceedings -- is running late and has not yet arrived.

46. Howard had been the true hero and a true gentleman! Who would work if their partner was a millionaire? Its not so low for a lady to not work if her partner is well off so-- why is it for a man? Leave the poor man alone! Of most all the photos shown, HE is the one with her. HE was her right hand man and SHE wanted it that way!!! People are guessing about what has happened, but they dont know. And to make such horrible remarks, only shows those persons IQ. Stop dragging her name throught the mud and let her, Howard, and baby be!!! Be christian, and let people morn. Let Anna Nicole leave her mark as a good mother and great friend! All else is just, a nasty vile way to get attention!!!! and because of ALL this, its made alot of people and business' VERY rich! Even the chirch wants something from her now... POOR LADY!! ** Good-bye Anna!!

47. Regarding ET, if you'll notice they have stopped calling Howard Dannielynns Father, or even presumed Father. They now refer to Dannielynn only as "Anna's baby"

48. We see how much her Mother cares.......she'd rather have her daughter wait instead of letting her rest for eternity.

Very pathetic.

49. ET and Mark Steines will have exclusive footage of the gravesite burial. ET sure does have deep pockets to pay Howard for the exclusive interviews. My skin crawls every time I watch Mark Steines inteviewing Howard K. Stern. ET spins Howard's lies while Anna will be spinning in her grave!

50. They better take the baby girl away from Stern, or who knows maybe in 6 months she will be mysteriously DEAD as well. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know whats up. This all has been intricatley planned. The writings are on the wall people!!!!!!!!

51. If that Cow stops the funeral, she is even worse than I thought, and that was pretty bad. No one can stop someone that is on or addicted to drugs, prescription or otherwise. Why can't you all leave the guy alone! I think he's the only sane one in this story.

52. Many have lost sight regarding the value of life. Regardless of how Anna chose to live respect and dignity MUST be shown. Is there anyone out there whose life, if broadcast in "video snipits" would appear anything short of questionable? One thing is clear; if her childhood was filled with what she had suggested, did she really ever have a chance?

Anna's mother isn't having Anna wait for 39 days in the morgue while having a dress made like Anna did to her own son. Wake up!!

56. The only reason Anna and Howard were there is because they were fleeing the US because she was going to lose her baby when it was born addicted!!!, When she inherited or "Won" the money from the old mans estate they were also avoiding paying taxes in the US by setting up shop in the Bahamas! What a scam! Howard will get his in the end, and Larry will get the Baby and the Money!!! Ha Ha Ha..........

57. Stern didn't love Anna. She was his meal ticket. A person who loves someone doesn't humiliate them....clown video. That's love??? He rode on her coat tails for a long time. He watched as she made out with others. He is an enabler and should not go near that baby.

I think Anna thought she could trust him, but I think she was unaware of his uterior motives..... $$$$$ and the fame of being her companion.

I don't like the coincidence of the death of 2 family member within months.

Sorry, I just don't trust him.

58. Howard K. Stern is a KIDNAPPER, LIAR, ENABLER, THIEF, DRUG DEALER, PIMP and a LEECH!!!!!!!!! I hope he burns in hell. He needs to give the baby to her father LARRY BIRKHEAD right now!!!!!

59. Wow...sounds like Daniels father and Virgie were born out of the same ###hole. What are they thinking..... I am starting to believe Anna's story about her family is ringing true. Shame on them. P.S. Larry...watch out, Virgie is going to try to take the baby away from you too.

60. What kind of a mother "runs late" to her own daughter's funeral?!!! She just wants a grand and noticed entrance for the press. That woman is a nut case and since Anna said on national TV that her mom abused her and gave details I sure wish someone would press charges and give this woman something else to occupy her time with! It is no wonder Anna wanted nothing to do with the woman and refused to let her see her granddaughter!
