Since the news of Joan Rivers’ death took over the internet, there has been a flood of memories, mourning, jokes, quotes and prayers for the late comedienne and her loved ones.

One particular quote that has been getting a lot of attention has been an excerpt from Rivers’ 2012 bestselling book “I Hate Everyone… Starting With Me” in which she discusses what she wants for her funeral when she passes.

In the book Rivers wrote, “When I die (and yes, Melissa, that day will come; and yes, Melissa, everything’s in your name), I want my funeral to be a huge showbiz affair with lights, cameras, action… I want Craft services, I want paparazzi and I want publicists making a scene! I want it to be Hollywood all the way.”

The passage continued, “I don’t want some rabbi rambling on; I want Meryl Streep crying, in five different accents. I don’t want a eulogy; I want Bobby Vinton to pick up my head and sing ‘Mr. Lonely.’ I want to look gorgeous, better than I do alive. I want to be buried in a Valentino gown and I want Harry Winston to make me a toe tag. And I want a wind machine so that even in the casket my hair is blowing just like Beyoncé’s.”

The funeral for Joan Rivers is planned for Sunday in New York City.

Again, RIP Joan Rivers. The world is missing and mourning you.
