[originaltext] Marcheline Bertrand, actress and mother of Angelina Jolle, died

Marcheline Bertrand, actress and mother of Angelina Jolle, died on Saturday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Jolie said in a statement to the Associated Press.
  The 56-year-old Bertrand, who battled cancer for over seven-and-a-half years, was surrounded by her children, Angelina and son James Haven, as well as Jolie’s partner, Brad Pitt.
  "Marcheline was beautiful, caring and totally devoted to her children. I never saw her upset or sad, even after she was diagnosed with cancer," Lea Hunter, who once dated Haven, tells people. "She always treated me like a member of her family."
  Bertrand, who had small roles in movies including 1983’s The Man Who Loved Women, raised Jolie and brother Haven by herself after divorcing their father, Oscar-winning actor Jon Vuight, when Jolie was a toddler.
  A private funeral is planned, and the family requests that in lieu of flowers or gifts, donations be made to the Women’s Cancer Research Institute at Cedars-Sinai.
