Lisa Marie's Mortality Reminder

October 30, 2004 | People
According to a report in Contact.music, rocker Lisa Marie Presley can't bear to spend time at her late dad Elvis' Graceland grave - because there's a space reserved for her right next to him. The 36-year-old fears she'll follow her father and grandmother, Gladys, and die in her 40s, and then spend eternity lying beneath the grounds of the Memphis, Tennessee, estate her father called home. She says, "How many people are reminded of their fate, their mortality every day? "All the graves are lined up and there's a spot there - waiting for me - right next to my grandmother." Graceland also features the graves of Elvis' father Vernon and his grandmotherMinnie Mae. Lisa Marie adds, "I'm sure I'll end up there. Or, I shrink my head and put it in a glass box in the living room."

Will Priscilla "Presley" also be burried there? Does she qualify??

In response to CD King's letter about Priscilla being buried there... no. I don't see why she would be... she gave up the name PRESLEY the day she divorced Elvis!!! She is married to another man therefore should not even be considered to be buried with the rest of the Presley family.
