Legendary musician Leonard Cohen was buried in “an unadorned pine box” next to his parents in a Montreal cemetery on Thursday (Nov. 10), his son Adam wrote in a recent Facebook post.
“My sister and I just buried my father in Montreal. With only immediate family and a few lifelong friends present, he was lowered into the ground in an unadorned pine box, next to his mother and father. Exactly as he’d asked,” producer Adam Cohen wrote Saturday evening.
Cohen, who died Monday in Los Angeles, was laid to rest in the Shaar Hashomayim Cemetery, which resides in the Montreal’s Westmount neighbourhood, according to the Toronto Star. His gravestone is reportedly unmarked.
