Leonard Cohen's son is thanking the public for the outpouring of affection that has followed the death of his father.
Adam Cohen says the legendary singer and poet was buried in Montreal following a simple service attended by family and close friends.
In a Facebook post, he paid tribute to his father's "unique blend of self-deprecation and dignity'' as well as his elegance, charisma and vast body of work.
Leonard Cohen died at his Los Angeles home on Monday at the age of 82.
Since his death, a steady stream of visitors has been stopping by his house in the Plateau to lay flowers, candles and even a fedora at an impromptu memorial on the doorstep.
Mayor Denis Coderre tweeted on the weekend a concert will be organized in Cohen's honour in the coming weeks, but no date was given.
