["A Celebration of the Life of Lisa Marie Presley"](https://www.commercialappeal.com/story/entertainment/2023/01/22/lisa-marie-presley-live-updates-from-graceland-memorial-service-memphis-burial/69820642007/) (that's how the event was identified on the cover of the four-page program that was handed out by the thousands to the mourning fans who crowded the rain-soaked north lawn of Graceland).

Elvis Presley's funeral - Lisa Marie's touching gift and evil attempt to ... (Irish Mirror)

Lisa Marie, whose own memorial was this weekend, asked the funeral director if she could give her 'daddy' something special when he was laid to rest.

"Lisa Marie Presley was an icon, a role model, a superhero to so many people all over the world. [Lisa Marie Presley](https://www.irishmirror.ie/all-about/lisa-marie-presley) was just nine-years-old when her beloved father died - and now they have been laid to rest together. "And his favourite colour was white. I could not even tell you what number limo I was in." "Everything was white, as it should have been. Elvis' grandson, Benjamin, was laid to rest on the opposite side when he died in July 2020 at the age of 27. Dad Vernon was also laid to rest in the same place when he died of a heart attack just two years after his son's death, with some believing he died of a broken heart. That was his colour. The private funeral for family and friends saw Elvis laid to rest next to his mother in the family mausoleum - with Vernon remaining alone inside to say a final goodbye to his son. One of the three men was actually an undercover FBI agent who tipped off the police and claimed the others were going to "ransom" the body for millions of dollars. He was in white, all the lining was white, the hearse was white. Former girlfriend Mindi Miller, who dated Elvis in the mid 70s, was one of those who viewed his open casket in private with the rest of the family at the start of the day.
