Legendary R & B singer Whitney Houston was put to rest yesterday afternoon following a funeral service that lasted for more than three hours. Although intended to be a small and private ceremony, her family decided to share this moment with the public through a live stream. Many celebrities, including Reverend Jesse Jackson, Kevin Costner and Alicia Keys participated in the event. Houston, who sold more than 160 million records, is the daughter of gospel legend Cissy Houston and the cousin of Dionne Warwick. She will be put to rest next to her father in a cemetary near her hometown of Newark, New Jersey.
