(People) – Celeste Rivas Hernandez was laid to rest at a funeral service held at the Queen of Heaven Cemetery and Mortuary in Rowland Heights, Calif. on Monday, Oct. 6.
Family members gathered to mourn Rivas a month after her body was found in the trunk of a Tesla registered to singer d4vd, 20, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, on Sept. 8. The Los Angeles County Coroner confirmed that her body was released to her relatives on Sept. 23. Rivas was 14.
Rivas’ family initially spoke out about her death on Sept. 18. “As many of you know, Celeste Rivas Hernandez has been identified as the body found last week,” GoFundMe organizers Esmeralda Lozano and Gisel Vera wrote on the fundraising page. “She was a beloved daughter, sister, cousin, and friend.”
Ahead of the funeral, the GoFundMe page was updated with a message reading, “Thank you to everyone who is gracious enough to donate. The family is incredibly grateful. God Bless.”
On Sept. 17, detectives from the Robbery-Homicide Division of the Los Angeles Police Department served a search warrant on the 1300 block of Doheny Place in LA in connection with Rivas’ death — a home reportedly associated with d4vd.
Law enforcement sources previously told local KABC-TV and the Los Angeles Times that the Hollywood Hills address is where the singer was staying.
