- Story Text: Whitney Houston's family departed from the Fairview Cemetery, on Sunday (February 19) after laying the singer's body to rest.
Houston was buried next to her father John who was laid to rest at the cemetery in 2003.
Dozens of people waited outside the cemetery in Westfield, New Jersey to get a glimpse of the family as they left after the burial.
Houston was found submerged in the bath in her hotel room on the fourth floor of the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles last Saturday (February 11).
The cause of her death remains unclear and the results of toxicology tests are awaited.
The death of the star, one of the world's best-selling artists in the 1980s and 1990s, prompted a worldwide outpouring of grief, but her family decided that they wanted her funeral to be an invitation-only event with a single camera allowed in to film it. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
