DJ AM attends memorial services for crash victims

DJ AM, on his real name Adam Goldstein, is one of the mourners at the memorial service for Chris Baker, who died in the Learjet crash to which he was also a victim. The accident happened on Sept. 20 in Columbia, South Carolina and other 4 persons were killed.

The DJ arrived in a limousine to pay respects to Baker, 29. There were 300 persons present at the ceremony that lasted 2 hours. All the persons wore green, to honour his memory. According to his wife, green was his favourite colour.

Baker was a close friend and assistant to musician Travis Barker, who was also injured in the crash. “He was his right-hand man,” actor Simon Rex declared.

Goldstein, dressed in a green polo shirt, followed Villar’s request that people wear green – Baker’s favorite color – to honor her husband’s memory.

Goldstein, who suffered burns in the crash, was released from Doctors Hospital in Augusta, Ga., last Friday. Barker was released from the hospital Monday and is on his way back to Los Angeles on a bus.

“Travis felt so bad to have missed [the service],” said a source.
