funeral set for Saturday in New Jersey hometown
Whitney Houston's funeral will be Saturday in the church where she first sang as a child.
The owner of the Whigham Funeral Home in Newark said Tuesday that the funeral would be at the New Hope Baptist Church, but there will be no wake and no public memorial at Newark's Prudential Center, the sports arena that Houston's family had discussed as a possible venue.
The 48 year old Houston died last Saturday at a hotel in Beverly Hills, California, just hours before she was set to perform at producer Clive Davis' pre Grammy Awards party. Officials said she was underwater and apparently unconscious Nike Air Max 2016 when she was pulled from a bathtub. It could be weeks before the coroner's office completes toxicology tests to establish the cause of death.
Houston's body was returned to New Jersey late Monday.
Houston was born in Newark and began singing as a Cheap Nike Air Max 2016 child at the New Hope church, where her mother, Grammy winning gospel singer Cissy Houston, led the music program for many years. Cousin Dionne Warwick also sang in its choir.
An impromptu Cheap Air Max 2016 Red Black Outlet memorial for Houston was held Sunday during the Grammys, with Jennifer Nike Air Max Womens Hudson saluting her memory with a performance of "I Will Always Love You." Viewership for the awards show soared over last year by 50 percent, with about 40 million viewers tuning in.
A sensation from her first album, Houston was one of the world's best selling artists from the mid 1980s to the late 1990s, turning out such hits as "I Wanna Dance With Somebody," "How Will I Know," "The Greatest Love of All" and "I Will Always Love You." But as she struggled with drugs, her majestic voice became raspy, and she couldn't hit the high notes. |
