The death of a beloved musician shocked the world Saturday night as Whitney Houston was found dead in her Beverly Hilton hotel room. From her breathtaking beauty to her powerful voice, Houston is a musician that many will remember for a long time.
Today, it was announced that her funeral is to be held this Saturday at her hometown church in New Jersey. According to Carolyn Whigham, the owner of Whigham Funeral Home, the service is to be held at noon for family and invited guests only. Media reporters and uninvited guests will be asked to remain outside the church doors out of respect for Whitney and her family as they mourn her tragic death.
Houston’s family is grateful for all of the overwhelming love and support they have continued to receive. Please think about the Houston family as they remember their loved one this Saturday.
