PHOTOS: Fans remember Jenni Rivera

Rivera and six other people aboard a Learjet 25 were killed when it crashed near Iturbide, Mexico, earlier this month.

Mexican authorities have told reporters they believe her plane dropped 28,000 feet at speeds that might have exceeded 600 mph.

The memorial -- called a ‘celestial graduation’ by her family -- will be held from 10 a.m. to noon Wednesday and led by Rivera’s brother and minister, Pedro Rivera Jr.

‘We will celebrate the graduation into heaven, with honors, of our beloved mother, daughter and sister Jenni Rivera,’ the family said in a statement.
