Navarone Garibaldi penned an emotional tribute to his “big sister” Lisa Marie Presley following her tragic death on Jan. 12.

“Big sister… i hope you are now at peace and happy with your Dad and your son by your side,” Garibaldi wrote on Instagram Friday, referring to Elvis Presley and Benjamin Keough.

“I know the past couple years weren’t easy for you, and I wish things had been different between us. regardless, you are my sister and I’m sending love and prayers for your journey home. I still can’t believe this, I’m lost for words. Love you sis. Beijos. 💔”

Along with his touching tribute, the musician, who is 19 years younger than Lisa Marie, shared a photo of him as a baby and the singer as a teen.

Lisa Marie Presley 1968-2023


Garibaldi’s tribute came a day after the pair’s mother, Priscilla Presley, announced her only daughter died after going into cardiac arrest. She was 54.

“It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” she said in a statement. “She was the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known.”

Priscilla first welcomed Lisa Marie with the King of Rock and Roll in 1968 before giving birth to Navarone with her then-boyfriend, Marco Garibaldi, in 1987.

On Thursday, first responders rushed the songstress to West Hills Hospitals and Medical Center in California after she was found unresponsive in her home. They were initially able to revive her pulse after performing CPR and administering her epinephrine.

However, Page Six reported that she coded multiple times at the hospital before being placed on life support.

Reps then confirmed to Page Six that Lisa Marie will be buried next to her late son, Benjamin, who died by suicide in 2020, and her father at Graceland.

She is survived by her daughter Riley, 33, and twins Harper and Finely, 14  — who are now set to inherit the estate.
