DONNA SUMMER Private Funeral Service Set for Tomorrow MAY 23, 2012

RIP Donna!
According to TMZ:  ”Disco Queen” Donna Summer will be laid to rest Wednesday during a private ceremony at a church in Nashville, TN.

We’re told the church is expecting a capacity crowd — roughly 1,000 people — but the service is invitation only.

The family is adamant … they don’t want the ceremony to become a media spectacle and they’ve put together a strict guest list consisting of close friends and family members.

It’s unclear if any of Donna’s famous friends will attend — but we’re told people are flying in from all over the country.

TMZ broke the story … Donna passed away in Florida last week after battling lung cancer. She was 63.

Donna Summers Dies at 63

 

 

TMZ reports that singer Donna Summer died Thursday morning after fighting cancer, and Summer’s family confirmed her death shortly afterward. The disco star was reportedly trying to keep the extent of her illness under wraps while she completed a new album, though sources who saw her several weeks ago said she “didn’t seem too bad.” The five-time Grammy winner was known as the “Queen of Disco,” and rose to superstardom in the 1970s with her hits “Last Dance,” “Hot Stuff,” and “Bad Girls.”
