Corey Haim’s funeral is expected to take place Tuesday in Toronto.
Services will be closed to the public, according to a notice posted on the actor’s official MySpace page. The announcement says, “Please keep the Haim family in your thoughts and prayers during this time… the services will be closed to the public & it has been requested that Corey’s family be allowed privacy during this time.”
After friends and supporters made a plea for donations to help pay for the actor’s funeral, celebrity memorabilia dealer Startifacts said it would give Judy Haim, the actor’s mother, money to help with expenses. “We’re giving her $20,000 directly from our own bank account to be used however she sees fit,” Jon Hill, a manager for Startifacts.com, tells E! News.
As far as the death investigation, the California Attorney General’s Office says Haim’s name was linked to a probe involving a “prescription drug ring.” However, the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office has declared that an official cause of death will not be available for at least a month. The coroner’s office declined to state what medications were found in Haim’s apartment, but said no illegal drugs were found, according to the Associated Press.
