(CNN Spanish) - Sara Sosa, youngest daughter of Mexican singer José José, said Sunday in an interview with Univisión, that her father's remains will be cremated in the city of Miami, Florida, where they are currently.
The "half" of the ashes will later be taken to Mexico, according to Sosa, who also asked the Mexicans to honor their father "as he deserves."
Just a few days ago, Sara Sosa became the target of criticism and offenses among some followers of José José. The reason: the controversy with his brothers about the whereabouts of the "prince of the song" body. Finally, the three brothers reached an agreement about the funeral and the homage to their father.
Meanwhile, this Friday, a massive karaoke called by the Mexican capital government was held in Mexico City. In the main park of La Alameda Park, in the Historic Center, José José's fans gathered to perform their songs.

It was Sara Sosa who, in a telephone interview with Telemundo's Al Rojo Vivo program, provided details of the last moments of the artist's life, who died on Saturday, September 28. “He went asleep, we are very grateful that it was like that,” said Sosa, who sounded very affected hours after José José's death.
José José, stage name of José Rómulo Sosa Ortiz, was diagnosed in March 2017 with pancreatic cancer and since then, according to the same he disclosed in a video where he was considerably thinner, had undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments .
