Shannen Doherty, the beloved actress known for her iconic roles in “Beverly Hills, 90210” and “Charmed,” has tragically passed away at the age of 53 after a long and courageous battle with breast cancer. She has been open about her stage 4 cancer journey and recently talked about the worst ending for her illness. In a candid interview, the actress discussed her plans for a memorial service.
Doherty, who just passed away, recently revealed that she wanted her funeral to be anything but sad. Instead of a place to mourn her death, she wanted it to be a celebration of her life.
“I don’t want people to be crying,” she said. Given the choice, she would want to hold the memorial service in her home and have it feel like a party.
She preferred cremation but had not planned where to settle her ashes. “I want to be cremated,” she said. “I want to be mixed with my dog, and I want to be mixed with my dad.”
Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. Although she went into remission after two years, the cancer returned in 2019.
