Rob Reiner's Family Prepared a Private Funeral for the Director

Few tragedies have shocked Hollywood like the deaths of Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele. The actor and director was found dead in his home, with the evidence pointing to a double homicide. Celebrities and others alike were devastated to hear about what happened.

What has Rob's family planned for his funeral? Here's what we know about the way in which the people closest to couple have decided when it comes to saying goodbye. The entertainment industry continues to mourn a generational talent and the one of the most important people in his life.

According to a report by The News International, Rob's family will host a private ceremony to mourn Rob and Michele. Whenever a beloved Hollywood celebrity dies, it's normal for a massive public funeral to be organized.

Due to the violent nature of Rob's case, it would be easy to understand why the family needs time to grieve and process what happened to their loved ones. A murder case featuring such respected names in the industry is aggravating, to say the least.

Rob Shuter, the original reporter behind Rob's funeral details, understands why the family made this decision: "They know how many people want to pay their respects, but this first goodbye is strictly about family and the people who were in their lives every single day.”

The location for the private funeral remains unknown. In due time, the family is expected to host another ceremony, with this one being more accessible to other guests.

Another reason why Rob and Michele's deaths are a tragedy is that one of the director's sons is involved as a suspect. Nick Reiner was detained by authorities shortly after the bodies were found in Rob's home.

It's hard to put into words how important Rob was to the entertainment industry. The director was the artistic voice behind titles such as When Harry Met Sally... and A Few Good Men. These movies defined their respective genres back when they were released, setting a pop culture precedent that evolved over time.

Rob will be remembered as one of the few stars who were talented both in front of and behind the camera.

The Princess Bride is a comedy that featured performances from Mandy Patinkin and André the Giant. The fantasy adventure is remembered as a classic due to the intelligent nature of its script and the timeless charm of its cast.

All of these titles continue to elevate Rob's voice in Hollywood, decades after they hit the big screen for the first time. The artist's legacy is unique, and it will stay that way for the rest of time.

Rob and Michele are more than the tragedy that took their lives. The crime won't define the love, emotion, and wisdom the couple leaves behind. Audiences will be able to enjoy the stories Rob produced for decades to come.
