Presley, 54, died Thursday, hours after being hospitalized for a medical emergency. It was previously announced that Presley will be buried at Graceland next to her son, Benjamin Keough, who died in 2020. Elvis and other members of the Presley family are also buried at Graceland.
A singer-songwriter herself, Lisa Marie did not live in Memphis, where she was born. But she made trips to the city for celebrations of her father’s birth anniversary and commemorations of his death, which stunned the world when he was found dead in Graceland at age 42 on Aug. 16, 1977.
Lisa Marie became the sole heir of the Elvis Presley Trust, which — along with Elvis Presley Enterprises — managed Graceland and other assets until she sold her majority interest in 2005. She retained ownership of the mansion itself, the 13 acres around it and items inside the home. A representative for Graceland told People magazine that following Lisa Marie’s death, the property, which is in a trust, will benefit her daughters, Riley, Harper and Finley.
She is survived by her mother, Priscilla Presley, and her three children. In lieu of flowers, the family is encouraging fans to make a donation to the Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation.
