Members DaytimeFan Posted September 7, 2014 Members Share Posted September 7, 2014 A friend of mine was invited to the funeral, he did business with Joan in Toronto with Canada's Shopping Channel, the Canadian retailer for Joan's jewellery and apparel lines. I won't bother repeating the copious details that the press have already said, they're all true. But I will say these two things When the funeral concluded with Hugh Jackman singing "Quiet Please, There's a Lady on the Stage"the entire congregation gave Joan a standing ovation. There was a huge floral spray from TRH The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall. I think that detail is the one that would have thrilled Joan the most. And Peggy Noonan wrote a brilliant piece about Joan, well worth a read: http://blogs.wsj.com/peggynoonan/2014/09/05/joan-rivers-the-entertainer/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bright Eyes Posted September 7, 2014 Members Share Posted September 7, 2014 Just the fact that both Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump were at the funeral is a good example of how far she reached people's hearts, no matter who you were.

Members DaytimeFan Posted September 8, 2014 Members Share Posted September 8, 2014 They were, by all accounts, just fine. Melissa gave a speech. Very stoic. Deborah Norville, who also gave a speech, said that Melissa proved she is her mother's daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
