Thousands honour Elvis at vigil

Elvis Presley fans from around the world are making their annual pilgrimage to Graceland to pay their respects to the rock and roll icon with a candlelight vigil on the 36th anniversary of his death.

Thousands of people carried lit candles as they walked slowly and silently through the Mediation Garden at Graceland, Presley’s long-time Memphis home. The garden is the location of his grave and the spot where his mother, father and grandmother are buried.
