Brian Wilson<\/a>, cofounder of the Beach Boys<\/a>, was laid to rest on Aug. 6.<\/p>\n Wilson’s daughter and his eldest child, Carnie, wrote a touching tribute to her father on social media. (Carnie’s mother is Marilyn Rovell, Brian Wilson’s first wife.)<\/p>\n “Today we laid my Daddy to rest,” she said. “It was incredibly difficult to see that happen, but at the same time it gave more closure and more of a feeling of restful peace. The last eight weeks have been extremely challenging and like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I love and miss him so much and I wish he could come back. There’s so many signs that he gives me every day and I know that he’s around. … I know that he would want everybody to feel happy and not sad. He didn’t like it when I cried.”<\/p>\n Wilson passed away<\/a> on June 11 at the age of 82. The previous year it had been announced that he was suffering from\u00a0dementia<\/a>\u00a0and that his family members had applied for conservatorship for his safety.<\/p>\nWhen Did Brian Wilson Die?<\/h3>\n
