Lisa Marie Presley: Photos of Fans Gathering at Graceland Leaving Tributes

Lisa Marie Presley suddenly dying at age 54 last week has led to people honoring her at Graceland.

In the photos below, a number of people went to the landmark home of Lisa Marie’s late father, Elvis Presley. They left signs, flowers and other tributes to the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley.

A rep for Riley Keough, Lisa Marie’s oldest daughter, told the media in a statement, “Lisa Marie’s final resting place will be at Graceland, next to her beloved son Ben.” Ben Keough tragically died by suicide at age 27 in July 2020. Elvis Presley and other members of the Presley family are also buried on the ground of the famed Memphis property.

A Graceland rep told People that the trust that runs Graceland will now benefit Riley, 33, and Lisa Marie’s 14-year-old twin daughters, Harper and Finley. Per Graceland’s official website, Lisa Marie was the sole heir to Elvis’ estate following the death of his father, Vernon Presley, in 1979 and his grandmother, Minnie Mae, in 1980. Lisa Marie legally obtained her inheritance on her 25th birthday in 1993, which was in a trust. She then created a new trust aptly named The Elvis Presley Trust. The trust managed the entire Presley estate. Priscilla Presley and the National Bank of Commerce were listed as co-trustees on the trust.
