Prince has finally been laid to rest, even though the circumstances surrounding his death is still baffling family and close friends.
TMZ reports that the ‘Purple Rain’ singer’s body was released to family members on Friday after autopsy was done. He got cremated and the family held a private memorial service for him at his Paisley Park home. In a statement released to TMZ, the singer’s rep, Yvette Noel-Schure, said:
“A few hours ago, Prince was celebrated by a small group of his most beloved: family, friends and his musicians, in a private, beautiful ceremony to say a loving goodbye. Prince’s remains have been cremated and their final storage will remain private.
We ask for your blessings and prayers of comfort for his family and close friends at this time. The cause of death remains unknown and it will be at least four weeks before we receive the results of the autopsy. An announcement will be made at a future date for a musical celebration.”
