Shannen Doherty wanted her remains to be ‘mixed’ with her dog and dad’s ashes after death

Months before her death , Shannen Doherty revealed exactly how she wanted her remains to be handled.

The actress said on her “Let’s Be Clear” podcast in January that she wished for her ashes “to be mixed with” her dog and her father’s ashes when her time came.

“Like, really mix it up so it’s a healthy mixture of my father, me and Bowie,” she said, adding, “I do not want to be buried. I want to be cremated.”

Doherty also gave her friend and episode guest host, Chris Cortazzo, permission to wear some of her ashes around his neck, as she did with her dad’s ashes following his death in 2010.

Cortazzo was one of the last people to be publicly photographed with Doherty before her death on Saturday.
