Joan Rivers’ Funeral Set For Sunday In Manhattan

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Funeral services have been set for comic legend Joan Rivers as the New York City Medical Examiner said Friday that further tests are needed to pinpoint the cause of her death.

Rivers died Thursday at the age of 81 a week after suffering complications during a routine throat procedure at a doctor’s office. Medical examiner spokeswoman Julie Bolcer said that the “cause and manner of death” will require further studies.

Her funeral will be held Sunday at Temple Emmanual-El in Manhattan. Services will be private and no other details were released.

Friday morning, Melissa Rivers left her mother’s Upper East Side apartment where a makeshift memorial of flowers and messages continued to grow.
