John Travolta and Kelly Preston celebrated the life of their late 16-year-old son Jett with an intimate memorial service on Thursday.

The service was held under a giant white tent built in the backyard of the Travolta estate in Ocala, FL. Flags flew at half staff and flowers were delivered throughout the day.

John, Kelly and their daughter Ella were joined by family and close friends at the private gathering. Jett passed away last week in the Bahamas.
