Gilbert Gottfried Laid to Rest in Star-Studded, Joke-Filled Funeral: 'He Would Have Loved It'

People/Olivia Jakiel

Gilbert Gottfried's loved ones are celebrating his life.

The beloved comedian and actor, who died on Tuesday at age 67, was laid to rest on Thursday morning in Westchester, New York, with celebrities from all parts of the industry paying tribute to their sweet friend.

Jeff Ross, Colin Quinn, Susie Essman, Mario Cantone, Dave Attell, and Paul Shaffer, as well as Bob Saget's wife, Kelly Rizzo, and his three daughters, Aubrey, Jennifer, and Lara, were in attendance at the memorial.

Whoopi Goldberg, although not in attendance, sent a gift in honor of Gottfried, and comedian Sarah Silverman is planning on sitting shiva with a slew of the Aladdin voice actor's friends and family.

For all the Amazon, Starbucks and other workers who want a union ... Joan Baez singing "Joe Hill"

Loved seeing this on the big screen when the "Woodstock" movie came out. One of the most memorable parts of the film.

Joan Baez - The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

I almost posted The Band doing it, but I remember how wonderful Joan Baez's version was. And while I'm at it, thank you Joan for all you've done for peace and nonviolence. This post is a tribute to you.

George Harrison - Cheer Down

I don't know why, but this one hits me hard every time I hear it. Maybe it's the slide guitar solo, which I absolutely love. (I've played a little slide in the past.)

John Lennon - Watching The Wheels

One of Lennon's most beautiful songs. And seeing the video makes me sad we lost him so soon.
