While his former fiancee and his camp are busy refuting the much-talked video which is claimed to have allegedly shown him at a drug binge party at a Hollywood hotel, new details have just emerged on the burial of the late actor .

Word has it that Heath will be put into his eternal rest at his hometown of Perth, Australia, with a burial may take place on Thursday, January 31 or Friday, February 1.

In the meantime, the New York Daily News reported that Heath will be buried in a $25,000 mahogany casket. Other reports, however, said that the father of one will be remembered in a service at his elementary school.

While there has yet any official statement from Heath's camp concerning his burial, the late movie hunk's family already held a private memorial service in Los Angeles last Saturday, January 26. Heath was remembered as well on the same day at the G'Day USA: Australia Week 2008 black tie gala, held at New York City's Waldorf Astoria.

Heath was found dead, naked in bed, surrounded by prescription sleeping pills in the bedroom of his Soho apartment around 3:30 P.M. Tuesday, January 22 by his housekeeper and a masseuse who had arrived for an appointment with the actor. Initial autopsy has been held but proved inconclusive.

I have always loved Heath Ledger and still to this day a year later he still is on my mind, it is so sad he was young and very good looking, that he is not here. But what gets me is that they said he was buried and I heard the other day he was cremated, so which is it, or this was said to throw the people off, and I guess I can understand that there are alot of strange people out there, all I know is he will be missed everyday he was one of my favorite actors it was like I knew him it is so sad.
