Her children, her brothers, her parents and many fans come to Universal Studios, where Rivera played, too.

Many tears and many memories were shared for singer Jenni Rivera at the Universal Studios Gibson Amphitheater on Wednesday morning.

An estimated 5,000 attended the memorial, which had tickets handed out for free for the "diva of banda music."

The children's tributes are particularly heartbreaking for the singer, who was killed in a plane crash in Mexico.
