Overview

• Priscilla writes that Elvis’ 1977 funeral at Graceland left the family with no privacy as crowds and cameras surrounded the home.
• She recalls authorities calling up the Air National Guard to help local police manage the huge turnout in sweltering conditions.
• The memoir says Lisa Marie sold about 85% of her inheritance in 2005, retaining the house, grounds and personal effects but ceding control tied to Elvis’ legacy.
• Priscilla describes the sale as devastating and a bad financial decision, saying Graceland and Elvis Presley Enterprises were built to generate ongoing income.
• Recent public remarks include that Lisa Marie proudly embraced the Presley name as a child and that Priscilla found a letter revealing her daughter’s deep longing for her father; after Lisa Marie’s 2023 death, her trust transferred Graceland-related interests to daughters Riley Keough and twins Harper and Finley.
