Stars have arrived at Graceland to say their final farewell to Lisa Marie Presley.
The singer will be laid to rest Jan. 22 after her memorial service at the famous Memphis mansion the singer inherited from her late father, King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley. Those who attended to pay their respects included Lisa Marie's friends Sarah Ferguson—Sarah, Duchess of York, Alanis Morissette, Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan and Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose, who all took part in her public memorial on the property's front lawn.
"I feel like I'm supposed to be texting her like, right now, saying 'I'm here,' telling her how wonderful everyone is," Axl said in a speech. "I never in a million years imagined singing here and especially under these circumstances."
The rocker added, "Lisa is loved and missed by many and will continue to be loved by all those whose lives she touched."
He then sat at a piano and performed Guns N' Roses' power ballad "November Rain."
Alanis sang her song "Rest," while Billy performed Smashing Pumpkins' "To Sheila."
In her touching speech, Sarah spoke directly to the crowd. "I stand here with great honor," she said, "because we called each other 'Sissy.'
The duchess also quoted comments the late Queen Elizabeth II made in a statement read at a New York City church service after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. "My late mother in law said, 'Nothing that can be said can begin to take away the anguish and the pain of these moments. Grief is the price we pay for love,'" Sarah said at the funeral. "How right she was."
Scores of fans, with some carrying small children, also flocked to Graceland to pay their respects. Flowers left by mourners adorned the entrance to the longtime tourist attraction.
Lisa Marie died in Los Angeles at age 54 in Jan. 12 after being rushed to a hospital, although no official cause of death has been made public.
