LOS ANGELES (AP) - Marcheline Bertrand, actress and mother of Angelina Jolie, has died of cancer, her daughter said Sunday.
Bertrand died Saturday afternoon at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Jolie said in a news release. No age was provided.
Jolie, her older brother, James Haven, and her boyfriend, Brad Pitt, were at the hospital Saturday, according to the news release.
Bertrand, who had small roles in the movies "Lookin' to Get Out" in 1982 and "The Man Who Loved Women" in 1983, raised Jolie and her brother after divorcing their father, Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, when Jolie was a toddler.
A private funeral was planned.
In lieu of flowers, the family asked that donations be made to the Women's Cancer Research Institute at Cedars-Sinai.

Marcia, I remember when I moved to California and your parents lived across the street from mine. We became friends and I remember going to your wedding in Brentwood. I was so hurt when I heard you fell ill. May God Bless you Marcia.

I just wanted to say God Bless you Angelina and may your beautiful Mom be at peace. I am a Braca1 girl as well and I have some tough decisions to make but your story is inspiring and it is good to see your positive approach with this negative condition. Your Mom did a great job raising you and may her light always shine through her family.
