Goody's funeral to be a public 'celebration with tears': publicist

London, March 22 (IANS) British reality TV star Jade Goody's publicist Max Clifford has said that the actress' funeral will be an eventful service and a 'celebration of life', as she had desired.

He said the funeral would be a 'public celebration' just as Goody had lived her life out in the public eye in the last seven years and as 'she died the way she lived,' reports thesun.co.uk.

'Jade wanted a celebration of her life. It will be very much a Jade Goody Production with Jade doing her own thing her own way. It will be a celebration, but of course there will be a lot of tears,' he said, reports thesun.co.uk.

He also informed that Goody had chosen Bermondsey undertakers for her funeral, 'because she was always a Bermondsey girl'.

The funeral service would be held at Goody's local church, St. John the Baptist in Buckhurst (suburban town in Essex) and after the service, the funeral cortege will pass through Loughton - near her home in Upshire, Essex.

No date, however, has been set yet for the tragic star's funeral but it is likely to take place in the next 10 days.
