After her daughter Lisa Marie Presley’s death and funeral, Priscilla Presley, who is 77, wants to be buried in Graceland even more. Reports say that she has been thinking about her own funeral for years and has been in touch with Graceland’s trustees in secret about being buried there.
Priscilla still thinks of herself as Elvis’ widow and her rightful resting place is next to him,
an insider spilled in 2019.
Her desire to be laid to rest at Graceland has only grown now that Lisa Marie is there,
a source reported.
Lisa Marie Presley, who was the only child of Elvis Presley, died of a heart attack on January 12 at her home in Calabasas. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department says that paramedics helped the songwriter get her heart beating again and took her to a nearby hospital, where she later died.
Her heartbroken mother, Priscilla Presley, told everyone the next evening that she had died.
It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,
she said about her daughter’s sudden demise.
She wants an elaborate funeral ceremony at Graceland. She wants to be surrounded by photos of her and Elvis in happier times and for his music to play as they lay her to rest,
an insider said in 2019.
The source said that after Lisa Marie died, Priscilla Presley would likely want most of the photos to be of their once-happy family.
The grave of the singer of “Love Me Tender” is in Memphis, Tennessee’s Meditation Garden, which is behind the swimming pool of the mansion. Lisa Marie, her only child, is standing next to her son Benjamin, who killed himself in 2020, behind the backyard fountain.
A source says that Lisa Marie, who was 54, was laid to rest at Graceland on Thursday before her public memorial service. On Thursday, January 19, the late singer was buried in the Meditation Garden next to her son, Benjamin Keough. Elvis Presley, her father, and Elvis’s parents, Vernon and Gladys, are also buried in Tennessee. On Sunday, January 22, there was a public service to remember Lisa Marie.
According to a source, the body was then buried. The report said that people who go to Presley’s public memorial service on the same day will be able to “walk by the body.”
