A newspaper is reporting that James Brown is expected to be buried today (Saturday).
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution says Brown’s body will be placed in a crypt at the Beech Island, South Carolina, home of one of his daughters.
The paper, quoting people close to the family, says there will be a private ceremony Saturday at the home of Deanna Brown Thomas.
Charles Reid, manager of an Augusta, Georgia, funeral home, says he got a call Saturday morning asking him about handling a burial service for Brown. Reid said he couldn’t do the service until this afternoon, and was waiting for the family to call him back.
The “Godfather of Soul” died on Christmas Day at age 73.
