Lisa Marie Presley was buried at Graceland near her father, Elvis Presley, on Sunday, January 22, 2023. She died on January 12, 2023 after suffering a cardiac arrest at her home in California. She was 54 years old. At her star-studded funeral, many celebrities, including Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose, paid their respects to the singer. He confided in Lisa Marie’s love for her family.
Axl arrived on stage just before performing a simplified version of his band’s emotional hit “November Rain.” He took the microphone and spoke modestly to an audience made up of Lisa and her Marie’s friends and family.
Axel says:
“Especially her family and those who have known her most or all of her life. He then opened up about Lisa Marie’s passion for family history.
“I know that Lisa loved her family very much and was fiercely protective of her father and his legacy, and both her father’s love and his love for her.
Early on at the funeral, Lisa Marie’s mother, and Elvis’ ex-wife, Priscilla Presley, spoke candidly about losing the young star.
She started by confessing that she had a “broken heart” and pointing out how much the world loves Lisa Marie. A 77-year-old woman then read a poem written by her Marie children, Lisa. “Old Soul, I didn’t know how to put her mother into words. The truth is there are too many. He was an icon, a role model, a superhero to people.”
Priscilla continues: do my best’. “
Priscilla was the one to break the tragic news of Lisa Marie’s passing. In her statement, she said, “It is with a heavy heart that I have to share the devastating news my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie left us.
She added: “We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss.”
