Cornelius Memorial

CORNELIUS MEMORIAL: A private cremation ceremony was held yesterday at Forest Lawn for late Soul Train founder/music industry icon Don Cornelius, among an intimate group of friends and family, including the Rev. Jesse Jackson, who led prayer in Don’s honor. Jackson, a longtime, close friend and confidant of Cornelius, will also lead the eulogy at a private memorial service for the pop cultural icon, set for February 16 at Forest Lawn. Son Tony Cornelius states: “The Rev. Jackson and my father were very, very close friends and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”Although the memorial is private, Tony Cornelius is working with a media partner to provide a pool feed of the event for fans and well-wishers who’ve shown their support across the nation.
