The ashes of Maria Kallas being transfered to Greece and scattered over the Aegean Sea

"Callas spent her last years living largely in isolation in Paris and died on September 16, 1977, of a heart attack. A funerary liturgy was held at Agios Stephanos (St. Stephen's) Greek Orthodox Cathedral on rue Georges-Bizet, Paris, on September 20, 1977, and her ashes were interred at the Père Lachaise Cemetery. After being stolen and later recovered, they were scattered over the Aegean Sea, off the coast of Greece, according to her wish." (wiki)
