'Saturday Night Live' devotes entire show to Prince tribute

'Most beloved' of Prince family, friends bid farewell

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Family and friends of Prince have said a "loving goodbye" to the music icon in a small private ceremony after his remains had been cremated. His publicist Yvette Noel-Schure says it was a beautiful ceremony on Saturday, and a musical celebration will be held at a future date. The list of people who attended was not announced, but Prince's sister Tyka Nelson and brother-in-law Maurice Phillips were seen on the grounds of his compound Paisley Park, as well as friends such as percussionist Sheila E. and bassist Larry Graham. Some fans at Paisley Park got a memento of Prince. People emerged from the estate and handed out round purple boxes containing a photo of Prince and a black T-shirt. Prince was found unresponsive in an elevator Thursday at Paisley Park.
