A source close to the family, speaking to the New York Daily News, revealed that the legendary singer and actor would be reportedly cremated and honored at a private memorial.
The source added that the private memorial billed only for close friends and family members would hold after the Thanksgiving holidays in Los Angeles. He divulged that there was the likelihood of holding a public memorial for the Partridge Family star after an avalanche of support from his fans.
