Millions of Star Wars fans (and general fans of the woman herself) are still mourning the loss of Carrie Fisher, but the actress/writer/humanitarian/passionate dog owner isn't done doing us the favor of using her comedic wit to bring us joy and laughter.
Fisher and her late mother Debbie Reynolds were laid to rest in a private joint funeral today, and Carrie Fisher turned heads one last time as her creamated remains were carried by her brother Todd in an urn shaped like a giant Prozac pill.

Todd Fisher explained to ET Online that "Carrie's favorite possession was a giant Prozac pill that she bought many years ago. A big pill. She loved it, and it was in her house... It was her favorite thing, and so that's how you do it."
Carrie had a frank and public struggle with drugs, alcohol and mental illness, and often poked fun at her own demons, while also using things like writing and informal counseling to help others, as well. Given her eulogy preference ("...I want it reported that I drowned in moonlight, strangled by my own bra."), fans would likely agree with Todd Fisher that a Prozac pill is the perfectly witty place for Carrie to rest.
You can next see Carrie Fisher starring with her mom Debbie Reynolds in the HBO documentary Bright Lights Saturday, January 7 on HBO @ 8/7c.
