(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Taylor Armstrong is in the early stages of planning a memorial service for her estranged husband Russell.

The 47-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was found dead at his friend's home in Los Angeles on Monday after committing suicide.

Although Taylor had filed for divorce from Russell last month, she is said to be in the early stages of planning his memorial.

"I have been notified by Taylor's attorney that she is making the memorial arrangements for Russell," his lawyer Ronald Richards told RadarOnline.

"Taylor wants to plan the memorial for Russell, after all, they were married.

"I know that Russell's mother wants to take his body back to Texas and have him buried though but that will be for Taylor and Russell's mom to figure out."

Ronald said that the "memorial will probably be next week. It's just an incredibly sad time for everyone."

Russell has left behind three children his five year-old daughter Kennedy with Taylor, son Aiden, 13, from marriage to ex-wife Barbara Frederickson and Griffin, 11, from his relationship with ex- fiance Milette Fields. (C) Cover Media
