WATCH THE VIDEO: Preparations were underway on Thursday as Fisher, 60, and her mother, Reynolds, 84, were memorialized together by Hollywood stars at their quirky Beverly Hills compound on January 5, 2017. Cars were spotted entering and leaving the gated compound where the two lived side-by-side. A large Classic Party Rentals truck delivered supplies to their home.
WATCH THE VIDEO: A Mega Dog Grooming Truck arrived at the home in the pouring rain. Fisher’s bulldog, Gary, was with her on the UNITED flight when she had a heart attack on December 23, 2016. Her daughter, Bille Lourd, has been taking care of the dog after her mother’s death.

Their burial has been a contentious situation for the remaining family. The Star Wars actress was cremated, according to her wishes, but her mother was not. Some of Fisher’s ashes reportedly will be placed in Reynolds’ coffin when it is laid to rest.

A frantic 9-1-1 call was made from the home on December 28, 2016. As Breaking Celebrity News reported, a male caller described Reynolds’ dire situation to the operator. Redacted due to medical privacy issues, the haunting call reveals that the operator asked the man call if Reynolds’ “chest was rising and falling normally.”
