The Travoltas Say Goodbye to Jett

John Travolta and Kelly Preston said their final goodbyes to their 16-year-old son Jett at his funeral Thursday afternoon.

Jett's service took place at Jumbolair Aviation Estates in Ocala, Florida, where he and his family lived for several months out of the year.

Travolta's next-door neighbor, Jacob Urbowicz, gathered outside the private memorial service along with other fans and neighbors.

"John waves to me from his plane, and for somebody like him to do that is pretty special," Urbowicz, 44, tells Usmagazine.com. "My 10-year-old son Alexander and Jett would smile and wave at each other [when they saw each other]."

Bobby Weiand, 13, from Auburndale, Florida, dropped off some flowers on Thursday. "I thought it was really important to be here today because I can only understand how hard it is for the family since their son was only three years older than me," he tells Us.

Flower delivery trucks came to the site throughout the day to drop off roses, lilies and other arrangements. Posters and cards have also been left for the family at their home in Florida.

The 16-year-old died from a seizure on Friday afternoon at his family's home in the Bahamas, autopsy results revealed Monday. His body was cremated, and his ashes were flown to the U.S. later that day.

Travolta called Jett "my baby" in an interview with the Australian media several years ago.

"He's my first, and he's my heart. And he's a very special boy," Travolta said. "He's Daddy's boy. And...we spend a lot of time together even though I'm pretty busy. He loves the outdoors and he loves to travel.

"He loves being on the plane. We fly in the ultralight together," he continued. "And...he likes to climb trees and swim."

His parents released a statement Sunday thanking fans for the outpouring of prayers and support after Jett's death.

"Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered. We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives," the statement said.

Remember the stars who died in 2008.

Travolta's attorney and confidant, Michael McDermott, and Michael Ossi, the family's lawyer, told Us in a joint interview Saturday that "John is distraught."

"This is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to him, and he needs to go through a process of healing," the lawyers added. "John and Kelly are suffering total misery. They were so close to their son. This is hard to accept."

Travolta and Preston are also parents to daughter Ella, 8.

Oh dear God my heart is breaking. There are no words...I hope Jett is at peace in a world where there are no seizures and that John and Kelly can find some peace in that thought.
