**** Debbie Reynolds Dead: Will Debbie & Carrie Fisher Have Joint Funeral?

In a double tragedy, Carrie’s Fisher’s mother, Hollywood icon, Debbie Reynolds, has died of a stroke, one day after her legendary daughter passed away in a California hospital.

According to TMZ, Debbie Reynolds and her son, Todd Fisher, were literally planning Carrie’s funeral when Debbie was stricken.
