Carrie Fisher’s Ashes Buried With Mom Debbie Reynold Inside Prozac Pill Urn
“Star Wars” alum Carrie Fisher’s ashes were buried together with the ashes of her mom, Debbie Reynolds, inside a huge Prozac pill urn.
On Friday, Jan. 6, a memorial service for the mother and daughter was held at the Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles. Fisher’s daughter, Billie Lourd, brother Todd Fisher and “Scream Queens” star Taylor Lautner were present at the wake. Later on, Todd was spotted carrying his sister’s ashes inside the Prozac pill urn.
While speaking with Entertainment Tonight, Todd explained why they decided to get Fisher an urn that looks like the pill. “Carrie’s favorite possession was a giant Prozac pill that she bought many years ago. She loved it, and it was in her house, and Billie and I felt that it was where she wanted to be. We couldn’t find anything appropriate. Carrie would like that. It was her favorite thing, and so that’s how you do it. And so they’re together, and they will be together her and in heaven, and we’re okay with that,” he said.
Ahead of their memorial, some of Fisher’s and Reynold’s family members and closest friends from the industry paid tribute to the late actress at Fisher’s home in Beverly Hills. While there, Meryl Streep performed Fisher’s favorite song, “Happy Days Are Here Again.” Also in attendance were Fisher’s half-sisters, Joely Fisher and Tricia Leigh, as well as Lourd’s father, Bryan.
Fisher was on board an 11-hour flight from London to Los Angeles on Dec. 23 when she had a cardiac arrest. She passed away on Dec. 27 at the UCLA Medical Center at the age of 60. Her mom had a stroke a day later and died at the age of 84.
