According to a Facebook announcement by her mother earlier today, Lisa Marie Presley (54), the only child of Elvis Presley, suffered a cardiac arrest and was rushed to the hospital. It is now being confirmed that she died.
[Hollywood] – Lisa Marie Presley, the only daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, has died. She was 54.
“It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” her mother Priscilla Presley confirmed.
“She was the most passionate strong and loving woman I have ever known,” she said in a statement to TMZ. “We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss. Thank you for the love and prayers. At this time there will be no further comment.” (more)
Heavenly Father, please provide comfort to the family of Lisa Marie Presley as they struggle with the pain of loss and grief. You are the decisionmaker in our lives and we seek Your grace and mercy for those left behind. We humbly ask that You provide everyone Your peace and love in tangible ways as they travel through the journey of grief. Help the family and friends of Lisa Marie Presley adjust to life without her presence and draw them closer to You. We ask Your grace to stabilize those who are suffering through the shock of this sudden passing, and through our belief in Your eternal promise we beg comfort for those who remain. In Jesus’ powerful name, I believe and pray. ~ Amen
I’ve keyed so many thoughts and deleted them all. RIP.
Do believe I know where you coming from
May the good Lord hold Lisa’s family in his loving comforting hands.
RIP Lisa Marie Presley .
She’s in her Daddy’s arms, I pray.
So many tears at Graceland. R.I.P.
Owned by Scientology like all the income that Elvis still generates goes directly to that cult that hides under “religion”
Like Islam.
Islam is now promoting Scientology.
https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2011/06/07/black-supremacist-nation-islam-pushes-white-dominated-scientology
A bit off-topic…but very interesting…
Western Christianity is largely captured by Zionism. In today’s world, religions are big juicy plums awaiting the right earthly thumb.
Apologies the above on this thread. RIP is far more in order.
Wow. What a shame.
If you cannot say something nice at this time, why comment. She has not been active in Scientology for a very long time. The money that Elvis generates was wasted by her business manager without her knowing until it was too late. Priscilla took the estate from 1 million to 400 million, but Lisa inherited it all when she was way too young [not unusual – too many young people inherit money or like many athletes make it when they are too young to appreciate it]. To her credit she spent a good chunk of the money to help charities in Memphis – not the “religion.” One of the things she did was build some apartments for homeless women and children to live in while they were helped to get on their feet.
Those are some very good & noble ‘works’. Ty for sharing that about Lisa.
Amen.
Retired Magistrate here: So very, very sad. Rest in Peace, Lisa Marie Presley.
Retired mortgage lender here : Very sad.
Retired foreign language teacher here: I love you all, even when we disagree – as rarely as that occurs.
Not yet ready to retire healthcare worker here. AGREED. Very sad. May she rest in His eternal peace.
RN should be retired but cannot….very sad indeed…RIP….the apple of her daddy’s eye.
Not retired yet here—- and you know the rest of the blah blah blah…,
Retired court reporter here. So many tragedies for this family. R.I.P., Lisa Marie.
so sad that so many now have to qualify their believability and integrity on what they did rather than who they are and what they DO now….I have spoken directly to Marcia before about this but she seems to feel she needs to identify as a “Retired Magistrate” to be relevant….maybe she does require that but she does seem to have started a trend
Hence the sarcasm that followed.
Not retired yet sarcastic, smarty pants— here!
Seriously, God bless family and friends for their loss.
Unnecessary quip.
Yes!
Retired lawyer here. One should only self ID in that way IMO if that info lends credibility to one’s comment; i.e., if I was making a comment about why the raid on a home violated the 4th amendment, I might want to alert the community that I have some level of expertise in that area. Otherwise, totally agree with you.
Yes, most of us know that already and really don’t need to be reminded.
Not a control freak here: revealing your expertise or lack of tells a lot in a few words.
Marcia’s background qualifies her to speak with wisdom and intelligence on many topics.
I need to add an edit to say that I left these branches for a long time when some felt the need to post personal remarks questioning if I was a conservative. Ouch.
I guess that is why the worst of bad fights always seem to occur at funerals.
Not a control freak here: I see some others distressed when someone causes a deviation in the way they prefer to do things.
That’s sad….and ..
R.I.P Lisa Marie.
Retired Magistrate here: At one time there was an attorney who used to post here all the time as “Retired Attorney here” or something like that. I really enjoyed his posts. A few years ago he quit posting because of all the flak he got. So, I picked up on the title that he used and just added Magistrate because that is what I did along with many other professions in the law enforcement field over the years.
My comment regarding Lisa Marie Presley was meant to pay respect to her. “Retired Magistrate here” is my moniker and I will continue to make comments here under that name. If you don’t want to read my comments, just scroll on down.
Thank you Marcia, for paying respect to Lisa Marie Presley and standing your personal ground. The comments directed at you were unnecessary and disappointing. Have a blessed day.
Thanks for the background. It appears the admins here don’t mind your moniker. Therefore, rock on!
She has deep insecurities and a need to proclaim her old profession in order to assuage her own self doubts.
-retired counselor here.
Were your handle online “retired counselor” or “retired teacher” or “retired contractor” or “proud mom” or whatever, I seriously doubt anyone would be so affected as to attack her use of her handle.
It must have something to do with the word “magistrate.”
Some people are evidently envious of or otherwise bothered by what that word connotes.
To me, the handle says nothing about its user and everything about those who have the gall to respond negatively to it.
It’s just her handle, her name online, no biggie, as if someone called oneself “retired teacher.”
Amen 🙏
I remember the day Elvis died like it was yesterday. I was young but it was so profound. My heart is aching in the same manner for Lisa Marie. May she rest in peace and she is with her daddy now.
And her son.
I was with my girlfriend in NYC (who later became my wife in June of 1978) when Elvis died. We were watching the TV together when it was announced hat he had passed away. That was a very sad moment.
And Elvis’ birthday just passed on January 8th. Very sad.
Me too, was sitting at my desk at Hahn AFB, Germany.. I saw Elvis in Vegas 1973 and as a Brit it was surreal. Such a tragic family.
I had just arrived at Keesler AFB in Biloxi Mississippi for my technical training when the announcement that Elvis had passed away. It was a very surreal day. May they both rest in God’s loving arms.
In a car on the bridge at Atlantic Avenue in Pompano/Ft.Lauderdale, coming home from the beach….
I was working the overnight shift at a gas station in Leeds, UK, when the evil bastard Jimmy Saville pulled in for fuel and gave me the news of the passing of the King. He was a regular customer, always accompanied by young women on the way to his home in Roundhay Park after quitting the clubs. He took great delight in showing me a square diamond encrusted ring he claimed Elvis had given him. A hero and a devil all in one interaction. Elvis will forever be special in this world.
My love of Elvis, his music, his bands and his cultural significance is such that anything such as this which makes his spirit cry cuts deeply.
Elvis had a lot to with my today being a fairly accomplished guitarist. But from day 1 of my musical life journey Jeff Beck always made me feel like I knew nothing about the instrument at all.
It has been a pretty sad couple of days for my musical being.
I was younger and was not a huge fan of Elvis although I always enjoyed hearing his music. But this past Christmas I ordered one of his Christmas CD’s (two CD’s in one so it has a nice selection of songs). Have to say it has become my favorite hands down and I am so glad I ordered it on a whim.
I thought he sang gospel better than anyone I have ever heard. Some of his gospel songs bring me to tears. I pray father and daughter are reunited 🙏….
One of the only concerts re-broadcast on PBS that I will watch is the black-leather younger Elvis concert. Amazing voice and those in attendance added to the shows greatness. May watch a few other older concerts that they air at pledge-donation time of year.
Otherwise PBS is NEVER on in my house.
Same here and this with father and daughter always brings me to tears. I have heard him sing the original w/o her voice and I like this version better – and I am a huge fan of all his gospel music – no one sings it with more depth of feeling than Elvis – she and Elvis can sing together in Heaven now.
That was simply beautiful and perfect for a time such as this. Thank you, Carolyn, for sharing with us! RIP, Lisa Marie. Holding hands with Daddy again. Bless Priscilla and the entire family as they mourn.
I have an Elvis gospel CD too. I watched a YT video a few weeks ago of Elvis singing Bridge over Troubled Water. Holy Cow, no one can do it better.
Speaking of Gospel songs and Jeff Beck (above) … I just love this gospel song …
As the grim reaper waits for Keith Richards…
Beautiful!
Eva Cassidy also does a knockout version of this classic.
I watched bluegrass greats Bela Fleck and Sierra Hull play it live at a festival last summer. It’s the type of song everyone can interpret with wonderful results…
Another such is I Am a Pilgrim.
I remember him saying gospel was his first love.
I’m with you. But you and I both know that our sadness of witnessing our musical icons pass on is only gonna pick up speed and frequency in the coming months and years. However … I’ll still wager that Keith Richards goes … last.
I understand – same reaction when we lost John Prine to the Wuhan Bioweapon early on.
In my opinion John Prine’s greatest instrument was his songwriting – and for me the brilliant simplicity of his life’s work has been a great revelation…
So sad. God bless her and God rest her.
Lisa Marie and her family have been part of the culture and our lives for several generations.
I’m so sad for Priscilla who also has survived the loss of Elvis, and then her grandson, and now must cope, not only with the loss of her only daughter and only child, but support her granddaughter in her overwhelming and unbearable grief, and who has now lost her brother and mother.
This is too much to bear without the Grace of God.
They have such a long, painful road ahead.
May angels bear them up.
She also left twin minor girls born in 2008.
Priscilla actually has a son. Born after she and Elvis divorced. Have not heard him mentioned in many years. Was just wondering about him a few weeks ago…
He committed suicide.
Lisa Marie’s son, from her first marriage to Danny Keon, committed suicide a few years ago. Priscilla had a son that killed himself also?
No, Priscilla’s son is alive and recently married
Priscilla’s only child with ex Marco Garibaldi, Navarone, married his girlfriend, Elisa Achilli. “Navarone and Elisa are MARRIED!!!” Elvis Presley’s former wife shared via Instagram on Tuesday. “The wedding was at the beautiful Schloss Hunigen Hotel in Switzerland.Feb 16, 2022
Danny Keon 1988-1994
Michael Jackson 1994-1996
Nicholas Cage 2002-2004
Michael Lockwood 2006-2021
Actually Priscilla has a grown son – a lot of people are not aware of that, but she has indeed endured a lot of loss, she is also fortunate to have a strong relationship with her family.
I believe he was interviewed with Greg Kelly tonight? I was not quite paying attention.
Priscilla’s mother passed away in August 2021 at age 95. She has suffered a lot of heartache in her life. Praying for her and all of the family. Rest In Peace Lisa Marie. You’re with your loved ones now.
Go to your Father.
May God have mercy on her mother and daughter. Rest is peace Lisa.
She carried a lot on her shoulders…
she represented ‘Americana’ for many of us, as the link to Elvis.
feel bad for priscilla too.
Amen 🙏
God Bless and hold Lisa Marie’s mom and children in care and comfort.
Incredibly sad.
So sorry to hear.
Another victim of Fauci Mengele.
It is increasing by the day isn’t it? Person after person and yet it is still being pushed by PedoJoe, the CDC, etc. I was on ScrewTube a day or so ago and the first video in my feed was “Why I Need To Get The Updated Covid Shot.” 🤢🤮
“ScrewTube”! That’s new to me. Thank you for the laugh – deeply appreciated this early morning.
So wrong, so clueless and so lacking in compassion that it’s breathtaking.
Ms. Presley had been struggling with multiple drug issues for 40 of her 54 years. Same as her father, and her son.
There’s a point at which you either get sober for good, or you die from the cumulative effects.
I pray the addictions kill no more from that family.
Sometimes, just sometimes Occam’s Razor is the only option. It’s like “the corneror” stating that the young beautiful early 30s actress died (2022) from “complications” from an accident she had in 2009.
Wtf
Mikey: I read here frequently but surely miss out on tons of comments.
I would certainly say that I have no way of knowing what the cause of her heart attack was.
Do you have some specific intel that drug addiction was the cause of her heart attack?
If not, your speculation is no different than the speculation you are bothered by.
One doesnt know
However coupled with drug use and inflammation from the shots I suspect each contributed.
The shots cause endothelial inflammation ( and other bodily inflammation) which is widespread AND myocarditis, so I suspect both contributed.
Also they’re saying the shots cause depression. Some years back a Melbourne psychiatry prof wrote a long article in which he linked brain inflammation to depression.
American Heart Association Study Shows Link Between Covid Vaccines and Heart Inflammation
https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.061025
So depression is an inflammatory disease, but where does the inflammation come from?
There is now an extensive body of data showing that depression is associated with both a chronic low-grade inflammatory response, activation of cell-mediated immunity and activation of the compensatory anti-inflammatory reflex system (CIRS), characterized by negative
immunoregulatory processes [1, 2]. New evidence shows that clinical depression is accompanied by increased oxidative and nitrosative stress (O&NS) and autoimmune responses directed against O&NS modified neoepitopes
https://bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1741-7015-11-200
Why Is There an Increase in Depression After COVID?
The connection between depression and coronavirus.
One study reports persistent depression and anxiety can follow severe cases of COVID. Other research shows this result without severe symptoms.SSRIs show promise in relieving depressive symptoms as well as altering the inflammatory properties of the virus causing COVID-19.And on http://www.flccc.net , an SSRI, Fluvoxamine is recommened in low doses for Covid infections
The vaccine which contains the spike protein AND mRNA can IMO, cause this too.
https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/its-not-just-in-your-head/202206/why-is-there-increase-in-depression-after-covid
Is Depression a Symptom of COVID-19?
Research shows there may be a link between COVID-19 and the symptoms of depression. Here’s why it happens.
https://psychcentral.com/depression/does-covid-cause-depression
Thanks for that. I had not seen it.
Other than toxins, pathogens are usually responsible for our inflammatory responses.
Many experts in germs (noted biologist Paul Ewald, for one) believe that childhood illnesses, common ones, are likely responsible for chronic illnesses we develop as well as cancers, etc.
It took definitive research by such people to finally prove to the medical world that hpv, an omnipresent virus, was responsible for a great deal of cancers of the reproductive areas.
It’s thought that a lot of breast cancers may also be caused by a virus that is sexually transmitted, although there is no definitive proof yet.
The going into overdrive by the body’s immune system beyond the acute stage into a chronic stage that results in disease, in other words has a few theories. If interested, I’d suggest a good book by Ewald, “Germ Theory of Disease.”
In fact, if you’re interested at all in the topic, Ewald is the go-to guy for good reads. A lot of his lectures used to be on u tube. I don’t know if they still are.
It was common knowledge to anyone who followed Elvis’ life, her life and her son’s life. It’s not speculation. Elvis died of drug abuse. She lost him at a young age, and became a cocaine addict at 14. Her son Danny died of a shotgun suicide at 27, after a failed rehab. Her ex-husband, Michael Jackson was an OD death. She admitted mixing prescriptions with alcohol to cope in the court docs of her divorce to Mr. Keogh, and she published articles about her addiction to opioids. Lisa Marie was a lost soul, unable to cope with so much tragedy. She died after 40 years of self-medicating. I can’t help it if you can’t work a search engine.
5+ admitted stints in rehab as well and a chronic opoid addiction. She admitted this many times. She looked completely zoned out on Tuesday night at the golden globes.
She got sober in order to keep custody of her two twins. Priscilla had custody of them while she was going through this. She started using opioids after their birth – given to her in the hospital, and like so many she immediately became addicted. Some personalities or chemical make ups seem to make those drugs just latch on and not let go – from there she started using cocaine and alcohol while going through her divorce, this is when Priscilla was given custody of them. Lisa has been clean and the girls living with her with the father allowed supervised visitation. He remarried a year ago. Lisa was a huge supporter of the vaccine and tweeted out about how she had her shots and told all her fans to be sure and get their shots.
She died of cardiac arrest – that is different from a heart attack. If you notice most of these sudden deaths we are hearing almost daily are cardiac arrest – which is pretty much sudden death because it is an electrical thing that is sudden and cuts off circulation. Few with Cardiac Arrest make it to the hospital to survive…
Lisa was slurring her words at the Golden Globes this week. She did not look that great. My bet is on drug use.
Now she is reunited with her father who adored her! I feel bad for Priscilla who lost her grandson 2 years ago and now her only child. So sad!
there is no guarantee of that no matter how good it makes you feel to think it….Elvis’ lifestyle throughout did not speak of a redeemed person….not saying he was not saved just that he did not live his life as one at any time
Priscilla has a son too.
Amen.
I was born in 1968 and grew up in a town across the Mississippi River from Memphis Tennessee. Elvis was part of my family’s life—our local/regional culture. I can still remember the day he died. Lisa Marie was my age. I imagine it was a hard act to follow and it didn’t help that she grew up in the Hollywood sewer. May they both Rest In Peace.
RIP and Gid grant her children, mother and all who loved her peace and acceptance.
On a side note, I always said that the day she married Michael Jackson was proof that Elvis was not alive because if that didn’t bring him back, nothing would.
Thank you! Loved, loved, this beautiful song!
He was before my time, but believe he was so talented, and sadly was a human tortured soul!
So sad right now.
Prayers up and that is all I got.
What an incredibly gifted man. One of the truly sensitive souls who put his entire heart & soul into his talent. From all I’ve read of this man, he adored his little girl. Much heartache in this family. Lisa just buried her son a couple of yrs. ago. Was it medications? Broken-heart Syndrome? The jab? The people may never be told. RIP, Lisa. Another on a very long list of ‘sudden deaths’.
Amen.
The elephant in the room. When will it get addressed? There’s too many died suddenly from cardiac arrest happenings for this to not be related to the shot. No conspiracies but not coincidences. These deaths are daily. This isn’t normal!
Those who continue to defend the vaccinations as blameless in sudden cardiac attacks and point to family medical history as the explanation – but wouldn’t this give one pause, to think that perhaps those who DO have a family medical history of heart attacks should not be given the vaccines?
No one should be given ANY mRNA vaccine after the disastrous animal trials where most (if not all) the animals died.
Now our government is in the process of allowing it to be injected into our whole food supply.
I read the UK will inject into cattle now, unbelievable! Not sure about other animals/birds, is this what the US is or plans to do?
Yes. This is very concerning. The new jabs that they’ve now designed for cattle, pigs, poultry. You can bet the elitists will have a separate source of food than what is made available to the ‘common man’. Saying ‘Grace’ before meals may become a revived tradition.
Don’t forget the honeybees!
They’re going to vaccinate them!
Yep…store up on your ‘honey’ now. Honey is one item that has many benefits and it does not expire. I also recommend having some Manuka honey on hand, though it is very pricey. But do your research to make sure you purchase the most beneficial type. Mercola recommends it.
And also, Jude…
“Now I lay me down to sleep.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take.”
This is the way we learned to pray the good-night prayer as children, long before it was tidied up “to not scare children”. In the 50’s, it spurred children like me to ask parents, relatives, and teachers questions about the Nature of God. It did not instill fear in us, but rather the comfort that makes children feel safe in the knowledge that God sees, knows, hears, and is – the Father of all.
The socially acceptable change to this little, but very important prayer, occurred during the the 60’s “reform everything” social movement… the beginning of “woke-ism”, but without that particular moniker. The change felt wrong then and it still feels wrong now – in the approach to my own take-off and landing, in God’s own good timing.
Yup…
The depopulation theory is being strengthened by evidence piling up daily, and now faster and faster.
At what point in this experiment does hypothesis yield itself to scientific theory, and ultimately become recognized as scientific law?
A simple question — what gives them the right to do this!? Nothing and no one! This is barbaric!
Not just those with heart disease-EVERYONE. The vaccine causes heart inflammation as well as a raft of other things. Its POISON
Unfortunately, the pace of unexplained heart failures is accelerating – young healthy people are dropping every day.
Unexplained to some, not everyone.
Let’s not go there right now. We may never know, but we do know Lisa Marie had a history of addiction. Even if she wasn’t using, and I surely hope she wasn’t, for I wish for her to have had victory over such a foe, drug use takes a horrible physical toll.
This was NOT a “sudden death”. It just happened suddenly, which isn’t the same thing.
The elephant in the room is that money and fame can’t save you from cocaine, opioids and mixing alcohol with prescriptions, all of which she had admitted to.
I’m afraid that dying from the cumulative damage of addictions is a lot more normal than most people like to face.
It’s ok. You can say it.
We all know it.
The jab is killing people.
Your theory, if true would mean most of us who lived and partied as young people in the 60s and 70s
would be dead now.
And yet, here we are..
That was my first thought. A woman her age? Growing up that seemed to only happen to obese smokers let’s say. I wonder what the tipping point will be with all of this sudden death?
So sad Lisa Marie -may Our Lord bless you and watch over you in heaven.
What a horrible loss……….

“where no one stands alone”
Yes, that is Lisa Marie singing a song her father loved.
God Bless America
regitiger, THANK YOU for posting that lovely video. It brought tears to my eyes.
Thanks for posting. Lisa stands with her father now. Never alone. R.I.P. 🙏
Crying
TY! Beautiful Tribute!
Such a beautiful prayer, Sundance.
Amen.
Amen. Thank you for that.
That’s a beautiful prayer..
So very, very sad, she will be ‘always on my mind’. Rest in peace.
There’s an old expression, I’m told, which goes like this: “Nobody who arrives in Hollywood is unbroken.” Sometimes it’s said, “Everyone who arrives in Hollywood is broken.”
Nashville. Hollywood. Broadway. Whatever.
The major character in Stephen Vincent Benet’s “By the Waters of Babylon” says, “Sometimes dreams can eat you up.”
Children of people who have been eaten up have it very hard. First, the genetic roll of the dice leaves them susceptible to the same combo of genes that expressed themselves in their parents and second, they often grow up never seeing “normal” until they happen upon a friend’s house where dysfunction does not rule.
We do the talented no favors when we make them into icons. The idolatry kills both them and us.
Everyone who arrives in Hollywood is broken
Apparently with the floods in Montecito, there were baggies of drugs floating away on the torrents of water!
Sad to hear. Elvis was born in 1935. I was born 1n 1938, so of course I was a big fan of his music! Never be another like him.
I believe Elvis’ birthday is January 8th, I remember that as it is one day after my Orthodox Christian Christmas. Loved Elvis. Lisa Marie Presley rest in Heavenly Peace.
Very sad. Agreeing in prayer with Sundance.
Repent & believe the gospel of Jesus. It’s the only way to heaven.
She was devastated by the death of her son 2 years ago. Most likely died of a broken heart.
If that were the case I’d be dead from the loss of my daughter.
From one Bereaved Parent to another, I’m sorry for your loss. (((HUGS)))
Broken-Heart Syndrome is very real. Remember the death of Debbie Reynolds shortly after her daughter, Carrie Fisher, passed on. I have buried parents, siblings, friends and even beloved pets…but nothing comes close to the pain of burying one’s child. It’s something only other Bereaved Parents can truly understand. The pain is excruciating and inexplicable. I know, I buried my Beloved son in ’99 after a drunken Colombian immigrant killed him. Only by the Grace of God am I still kicking. My prayers for Priscilla.
That so true. Its called Takotsubo Syndrome. A friend of mine got it after her dearly beloved mom died
God bless and comfort all of you, bereaved parents.
Beautiful prayer Sundance. Thank you. May Lisa Marie rest in peace and may her family be held up in prayer. 🙏
She is with Elvis and her son now.
🥺🥺 I don’t have words. My heart aches for Pricilla and the 3 girls left behind. Very sad to learn about Lisa Marie Presley’s passing at 54. Am I shocked? Not really. When her son died she died a little. A heart can stop for many reasons, and sadness is one.
I hope Lisa Marie, who had her dad’s gaze, is at peace resting eternally in the presence of her dad.
💔🙏
A must watch. Funny and mocking but not a funny subject whatsoever.
I will never forget and remain ready.

Now Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
and asked me if I would …. Do a little number
And I sang with all my might
and she said , tell me are you a Christian child ….
And I said …. Ma’am I am Tonight !
Love that song! Elvis would love that he makes a guest appearance. Thank you.
I saw Lisa Marie Presley perform at the Belly Up Tavern….it was a great show and the songs she wrote were thought provoking. Her song Hail Of Nails is one of my favorites…. I think we have all felt this way at one time or another….
“And on the forecast for today
A storm of nails headed your way
Man it’s gonna rain, rain, rain
And on my forehead does it say
Unleash the hounds of hell my way
Bite until she’s lame, lame, lame”
I noticed her coloring did not look quite right at the award show…I find this so sad.
Rest in Peace Lisa…
JFK, RFK, Elvis, John Lennon…I remember exactly where I was, and what I was doing those days that they left us…May his precious daughter rest in peace with him, in the Lord’s loving arms❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

Lisa Marie Presley Said She Was ‘Destroyed’ by Son Benjamin’s Death but Kept ‘Going for My Girls’
Updated on January 12, 2023 09:50 PM
-SNIPPED-
Editor’s note: Nearly five months before her death on Jan. 12 at 54, Lisa Marie Presley shared exclusively with PEOPLE an essay she wrote about navigating grief following the heartbreaking death of her son Benjamin Keough in 2020. This essay was first published on Aug. 30, 2022.
In honor of “National Grief Awareness Day” on Tuesday, the singer, 54, penned an emotional essay about the low points she’s faced in the time since Keough’s death by suicide in 2020 at age 27. She also gets real about keeping strong for her three daughters…
Read on for Presley’s essay, which has been shared exclusively with PEOPLE
Today is “National Grief Awareness Day,” and since I have been living in the horrific reality of its unrelenting grips since my son’s death two years ago, I thought I would share a few things to be aware of in regard to grief for anyone who is interested. If not to help yourself but maybe to help another who is grieving …
…grief is incredibly lonely. Despite people coming in the heat of the moment to be there for you right after the loss takes place, they soon disappear and go on with their own lives and they kind of expect for you to do the same, especially after some time has passed. This includes “family” as well
…particularly if the loss was premature, unnatural, or tragic, you will become a pariah in a sense. You can feel stigmatized and perhaps judged in some way as to why the tragic loss took place. This becomes magnetized by a million if you are the parent of a child who passed. No matter how old they were. No matter the circumstances…
Nothing, absolutely NOTHING takes away the pain…
https://people.com/music/lisa-marie-presley-was-destroyed-by-son-benjamins-death-grief-essay/
Nineteen years after my son was killed, I published the story of my journey: ‘Gifts from the Ashes’. It took me that long to be able to even attempt to express the inexplicable. I can surely testify to the fact that NOTHING takes away the pain. Only because Jesus is my Lord do I have real Hope of one day being reunited with my Beloved Son. Everyday, I’m one day closer to that glorious reunion. May God be with Priscilla.
Oh, my goodness I’m so sorry.
“…His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches over me…”
…Please keep her and our family in your prayers. We feel the prayers from around the world, and ask for privacy during this time. -Priscilla Presley

R.I.P. Lisa Marie. So much to say. A sad time.
I thought initially that she died due to drug abuse but someone just posted a screenshot of her Facebook page where she announced back in March of last year that she got the vax so who knows. Maybe the vax was the final straw
Ty…for making that known. I’m sure many have been asking about that.
So very shocking and sad, I couldn’t believe it. My mother was born the same year a few months younger than Elvis and Lisa Marie is also my age. My mother was a lifelong Elvis fan, starting with seeing him in person early on when Blue Suede Shoes was popular.
Coincidentally just a few nights ago, I just watched on YouTube, the TV movie, Elvis and Me, the story of Priscilla and Elvis, supposedly based on her book. I had seen it many years ago and looked for it.
I saw on here someone mentioned Jeff Beck, I didn’t know he had passed a couple days ago.
I know it’s hard losing a child, my parents wen through it with my oldest brother, and I know its hard losing parents, too. I pray God gives peace for the family that remains.
I hadn’t heard of Jeff’s passing. Ty for mentioning it. Another Great.:
And yesterday it was Robbie Bachman, 69, drummer for Bachman-Turner Overdrive.
“Another sad departure. The pounding beat behind BTO, my little brother Robbie has joined Mum, Dad & brother Gary on the other side. Maybe Jeff Beck needs a drummer! He was an integral cog in our rock ‘n’ roll machine and we rocked the world together.”
Just posted on another forum. Takin’ Care of Business was my freshman football team’s theme song almost 50 years ago.
That is a self-serving and very disrespectful thing to post!!
….We feel the prayers from around the world, and ask for privacy during this time.

It’s been a very tough week and the week’s not over yet. We’ve had star athletes, as well as young adults living more routine lives, just drop dead in the prime of those lives, “and for no apparent reason at all”. I shouldn’t quote Forest as I’m no longer the fan of Hanks that I once was – for reasons which have little or nothing to do with his professional skills sets.
Another sincere expression of Rest In Peace. Today it is to Lisa Marie, daughter of Elvis and Priscilla.
Probable that it’s going to get worse before it gets better?
These are the times that try men’s souls.
All we can do is keep moving toward the transformation of this world that our Almighty Father, the Creator of All, has promised us. That which is underway will be rendered bearable by the Promises that will be fulfilled, in His Good Time.
I remember walking through the ‘Lisa Marie‘ when we visited Graceland a few years ago and it was like stepping back into a different time. I don’t keep up with the lives of celebrities so know little of her life but we all are God’s children and now she’s home. Rest in peace.
What a beautiful prayer Sundance~
A comfort to all of us I am sure.
Is genetic defect behind early heart attacks in Elvis’s family? The King’s grandparents were COUSINS and may have passed on gene responsible for Elvis dying at 42, his mother at 46, three uncles in their forties… and Lisa Marie at 54
The early deaths of Elvis, his mother, and his daughter Lisa Marie are similar
They may have been caused by an Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, a genetic disorder which causes lung and liver damage and leads to other health problems
Elvis’s maternal grandparents were were first cousins, and their marriage may have caused genetic defects which led to health problems in later generations
In her book, Elvis: Destined to Die Young, author Sally Hoedel argued these genetic defects meant early deaths in Elvis’s family are a foredrawn conclusion

You can have genetic issues with many things. My family is the same as the Presley family. It doesn’t mean these issues will kill you, but your life choices do. Unlike my mom, grandparents, etc, I decided against eating unhealthy, smoking, drugs, alcohol regularly, lack of exercise, and sleep. Your choices in life matters more than genes.
Rest in peace, Lisa.
So terrible to see this on the news stations tonight. It seems like yesterday.
May the Presley family accept my pryers for Lisa Marie.
Amen.
