GLENDALE, CA - A small private funeral was held yesterday for screen legend Elizabeth Taylor.

The service was held at Forest Lawn Cemetery, the same Cemetery where Taylor's close friend Michael Jackson was laid to rest.

Officials at Forest Lawn say Taylor's final resting place will be in the same mausoleum as Jackson's.

Only about four dozen family members attended the private service.

The 79 year old actress died early Wednesday morning of congestive heart failure.

Taylor converted to Judaism before her marriage to Eddie Fisher and Jewish customs call for a burial within 48 hours after death.
