Fans Raise Lightsabers In Tribute To Carrie Fisher Around America

“Star Wars” fans around the country gathered to honor the late Carrie Fisher with lightsaber tributes fit for a princess.

Carrie Fisher, who is known for playing the most iconic role of Princess Leia Organa in the original “Star Wars” trilogy, Carrie Fisher passed away on Tuesday at the age of 60. She was hospitalized days earlier after reportedly suffering a heart attack during a flight from London to Los Angeles. A day later, her mother, Hollywood icon Debbie Reynolds, died at the age of 84.

Tonight I attended a lightsaber vigil in honor of Carrie Fisher. Amazing to see so many people of different ages and backgrounds gathered together for one common interest. May the force be with you, Leia. #carriefisher
