Lisa Marie Presley, who died on Thursday, January 12, will be buried next to her son’s graves, Ben Keoughand his father, the great Elvis Presley, in the Graceland mansion, located in Memphis, Tennessee.

This information was released by the representative of the actress Riley Keoughone of the three daughters of the deceased, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

“Lisa Marie’s final resting place will be at Graceland, along with her beloved son Ben,” the manager stated.

The fact that she is buried, right next to the place where her son’s remains rest, has great symbolism, since it is said that Lisa Marie could never get over her departure and that she cried for him until life allowed her to.

In addition to reuniting with her son, Lisa Marie will also meet her father, whose grave is one of the most visited in the world, since Graceland has been converted into a museum for several years and is considered the second most visited house in the United States, only for behind the White House.

What is Graceland like, the place where the remains of Lisa Marie Presley will rest until eternity?

The house, which was bought by Elvis in 1957 for $102,500 dollars and is located at 3764 Elvis Presley Boulevard, it was inhabited after his sudden death, which occurred on August 16, 1977, by various members of his family. Being until 1993, when Aunt Delta died, that it passed into the hands of Lisa Marie Presley.

Despite the fact that the mansion was still inhabited by them, the Presley family decided to transform it into a museum on June 7, 1982, to meet the high cost of maintenance.

The house, which is distributed over two floors, has eight bedrooms, hall, kitchen, dining room, living room, main room, music room, office, jungle room, TV room, games room, trophies, garage for four vehicles, among other rooms.

It also has a back garden, this being the place where visitors usually spend the most time, being there where Elvis Presley’s grave is located, as well as that of his parents, that of his nephew and that of Aaron, his twin brother, who died at birth. They will soon be joined by Lisa Marie Presley, who will once again live in heaven with her loved ones.

Ben’s death

It should be remembered that Ben, who was only 27 years old, committed suicide on July 12, 2020, inside the house he shared with his mother in Calabasas, which would have caused Lisa Marie to want to immediately get rid of the residence, because he did not want to torment himself with the memory of his dead son, achieving his goal until March 2021.
