Ahead of her burial, the grounds of the superstar's Memphis home will be opened for a public memorial service honoring the singer-songwriter and mom of four, a representative for her eldest daughter Riley Keough confirmed to E!

麗莎·瑪麗·普雷斯利 (Lisa Marie Presley )是貓王的獨(dú)生女， 將于 1 月 22 日在這位歌手的標(biāo)志性豪宅中安息，即她在 54 歲時(shí)去世的 10 天后。在她下葬之前，這位超級(jí)巨星孟菲斯故居的場(chǎng)地將為紀(jì)念歌手兼詞曲作者和四個(gè)孩子的媽媽而舉行的公共追悼會(huì)開放，她的大女兒Riley Keough的代表 向 E 證實(shí)了這一點(diǎn)！新聞，指出她、14 歲的姐妹哈珀和芬利洛克伍德以及麗莎瑪麗的媽媽普里西拉普雷斯利 “感謝支持，祝福和傾訴愛，以紀(jì)念他們心愛的麗莎瑪麗。”
 
Following Elvis' death in 1977 at the age of 42 and his father Vernon Presley's passing in 1982, Priscilla made a similar decision to open Graceland to the public, turning the property into a destination for fans of the King of Rock 'N' Roll. The 14-acre grounds serve as the final resting place for Elvis, who died of a heart attack at his beloved home, his parents Vernon and Gladys Presley, and Lisa Marie's son Benjamin Keough, who died by suicide in 2020 at age 27.
貓王于 1977 年去世，享年 42 歲，他的父親弗農(nóng)普雷斯利于 1982 年去世后，普里西拉做出了類似的決定，向公眾開放雅園，將莊園變成搖滾之王粉絲的目的地卷。這座占地 14 英畝的土地是貓王的最后安息之地，貓王在心愛的家中因心臟病發(fā)作去世，他的父母弗農(nóng)和格拉迪斯普雷斯利以及麗莎瑪麗的兒子本杰明基奧于 2020 年自殺身亡，年僅 27 歲。
 
The decision to allow the public to visit Graceland stemmed from the high estate and inheritance taxes Elvis' family were facing after his death, with Priscilla ultimately making the decision not to sell the property.
允許公眾參觀雅園的決定源于貓王死后家族面臨的高額遺產(chǎn)稅和遺產(chǎn)稅，普里西拉最終決定不出售該物業(yè)。
 
"I realized as it was going on that there really wasn't any money that could support Graceland or any of the people that worked for Elvis that were still there," Priscilla told Billboard in 2012. "I had decision to make to somehow save Graceland."
普里西拉在 2012 年告訴Billboard，“我意識(shí)到，隨著事情的進(jìn)展，真的沒有任何資金可以支持 Graceland 或任何仍然在那里為貓王工作的人。”“我決定以某種方式拯救雅園。”
 
40 years later, Graceland has been visited by more than 23 million people and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2006. Ahead of Lisa Marie's memorial, go inside the iconic estate and learn some facts about one of the world's most-visited homes: Elvis Presley was just 22 years old when he bought his Graceland home in Memphis, Tenn., on March, 25, 1957. The singer paid $102,500 for the property, which already had its famous moniker. The home's previous owners Dr. Thomas Moore and his wife Ruth named the mansion after Ruth's aunt, Grace Toof, when they build the Colonial Revival style home in 1939.

In addition to five staircases and three fireplaces, the home also has a billIards room and a lair that Elvis referred to as "The Den". Complete with a waterfall, wooden walls, a grass shag carpet and plastic foliage, fans began calling it "the Jungle Room" when Graceland was opened to public visitors in 1982.
