AceShowbiz - More details of an upcoming funeral for Paul Walker have come out. A source tells E! News that the late actor's remains will be cremated and his ashes will be interred at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Los Angeles, where a private service is planned to take place this weekend.
As reported before, the funeral would be private and attended by family and close friends only. A larger gathering is also planned after the small funeral, but it will also be for invited people only and no media or press will be allowed in.
The Los Angeles County coroner's office released the actor's body to his family on December 10. His father Paul Walker Sr. and brother Cody Walker were spotted at Forest Lawn Cemetery on Wednesday, apparently looking for a grave site plot to lay the "Fast and Furious 6" star to rest.
Recent report suggested that plastic road markers called Botts' Dots might have caused the car crash that killed Walker and his friend Roger Rodas on November 30. According to TMZ, experts told the family that the speeding Porsche in which he was riding hydroplaned on the plastic markers, causing the driver to lose control.
In 2004, Porsche released a memo to dealers to warn potential buyers about control problems with the Carrera GT. "This vehicle cannot drive over a Foster Beer can that is lying on its side. It will crush the can and damage the carbon fiber under panels," the memo read, "You need to be aware of what type of road surface you are on (dips, pot holes, seam heights, etc.)"
