Plans to cremate the actor are underway and Perillo says it may have in fact already happened. “From what I understand the cremation was supposed to happen sometime last night after Anna Gray viewed the body,” he said.
Coleman’s body has been awaiting cremation at the Lake Hills Memorial Mortuary & Cemetery in Sandy, Utah.
