Can you make this a sticky, so that it will be easy to find when arrangements start coming in?

Agreed. At least until it all happens, and the dust settles, a sticky would be helpful, and appreciated.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I agree there should be a sticky at least when some official news breaks down.

Same with the cause of death: when revealed there should be a sticky.

And same again with the estate: who gets to handle the vault and any releated announcement will be the next most important news.

A Fond Farewell! Prince’s Family Planning Public Memorial

His brother-in-law reveals details of the tribute.

Posted on Apr 22, 2016 @ 18:34PM

As Prince‘s family deals with the heartbreak of losing the man they knew as Prince Rogers Nelson, RadarOnline.com has learned they’re also busy planning a massive memorial tribute for fans of the music icon called simply Prince.

Maurice Phillips, the husband of Prince’s sister Tyka Nelson, told Radar that a massive public musical memorial is “in the works.”

Meanwhile, Prince’s body has been transferred to a local funeral home for cremation, and the family is still coming to terms with what has happened.

“We’re just waiting for the toxicology tests to come in,” Phillips told Radar.An autopsy was completed ...afternoon, but full toxicology results are not expected for several weeks.

Prince’s sister Tyka visited with fans at his Paisley Park home on Friday, telling onlookers that her brother cherished his legions of supporters.

But behind the scenes, Phillips said, “She’s holding up as best as she can … it’s really hard for her. Death isn’t easy for anybody.”

And Phillips said he has his own personal plans to honor the memory of the “Purple Rain” singer, who was found dead April ...sley Park.

“He trusted me with his sister, so I’m not going to let him down,” Phillips said. “He was a good brother-in-law.”

Has this been confirmed? I'm one of those people that hates cremation.

I hope he gets buried. Burial seems so much more natural.

Maybe it was Prince's wish. Most people state in their Will whether they wish to be buried or cremated. Let's respect that.

Not sure...Im just hoping his fans can properly say goodbye to him, but if his family does that then we'll have to respect their wishes.

Whether it was P's wish or his family's, it is not our place to critcize such an intimate decison.

Just to clarify- I wasn't trying to insult Prince's personal decision on what should happen to his body, I just mean that I personally feel uncomfortable with the idea of Prince being cremated. I feel the same way about anybody, it's not just because it's Prince. Sorry.

the public had him for 40 years... I think his family and Prince himself deserves a private moment to say goodbye.. and the fans can have a separate public celebration of his life and work.

Maybe cremation was what he requested, if that is what indeed happens. Maybe that would be for the best anyway, because personally, I would not want to see Prince's body in a coffin anyhow, if they were to have a viewing.
