Prince’s family announced Friday that they are planning a memorial service for the late singer to take place in the “near future.”
“We would like everyone to know that, contrary to previous and current reports, there has been no memorial, funeral or tribute service for Prince that was organized or authorized by the family or Paisley Park representatives,” Prince’s siblings said in a statement. “Together, the family is planning an official memorial service and public event to take place in the near future.”
The statement continued: “Prince and his music influenced so many people that we feel inspired to celebrate his life and legacy in just the right way. We appreciate the public’s patience and have been comforted by your outpouring of love, support and condolences. We look forward to sharing with the world this celebration of, and farewell to, our Prince.”
