Per US Magazine, Priscilla began reading, “I have no idea how to put my mother into words; the truth is there are too many. Lisa Marie Presley was an icon, a role model, a superhero to many people all over the world, but Mama was my icon, my role model, my superhero in much more ways than one.”
“Even now, I can’t get across everything there is to be understood or known about her, but as she always said, ‘I’ll do my best,'” the eulogy ended. Afterward, she hopped on Twitter to thank supporters by writing:
“Thank you all for your condolences, you have touched me with your words. It has been a very difficult time but just knowing your love is out there makes a difference.”
