The gal who penned "be adeqite", freshly sprung from rehab, Lindsay Lohan was allegedly distraught over the death of Robert Altman, so much so she fired off an ad hoc letter of condolence to the Altman family that included the sweet sentiment that was misspelled.

Lohan may have thought of her "A Prairie Home Companion" director Robert Altman to be an ersatz father figure, but Page Six reports that she didn't show up for his memorial service Tuesday.

As we reported a few days ago, Lohan was out clubbing in L.A. with "Jackass" hellion Steve-O instead.

After Altman's death in November, Lohan banged out a statement from her Blackberry stating Altman "was the closest thing to my father and grandfather that I really do believe I've had in several years."

A Page Six unnamed source snips, "If he was so important to her, where was she?"

Page Six reports that those who came to the Majestic Theatre in Manhattan were Lily Tomlin, E. L. Doctorow, Harry Belafonte, Julianne Moore, Kevin Kline and Tim Robbins, among the luminaries.

Page Six quotes thereeler.com, Julianne Moore telling the audience, "[Altman] said, 'The nudity in this part is bottomless.' And I said, 'That's fine. I'll do it' . . . Now what Bob claims - and I don't remember this - that I said in the next five minutes, 'Guess what? I'm a real redhead!' "
