Six months after his death , radio personality Casey Kasem has finally found a resting place . The former host of `` American Top 40 '' was buried December 16 at Vestre Gravlund , a cemetery in Oslo , Norway , manager of cemetery administration Stein Olav Hohlen told CNN on Tuesday . But the burial has not calmed a long-running family feud . `` This morning my family and I learned that my Dad 's abusive wife Jean Thompson Kasem and their daughter Liberty conned a cemetery in Norway into burying my Dad there , '' his daughter Kerri Kasem said on her Facebook page . `` Even with ALL the letters ... from my father 's friends and family stating that he wanted to be buried in the UNITED STATES , the country in which he was born and raised , his wishes were , once again , ignored by his unfaithful wife . '' Jean Kasem could not be reached for comment . Kasem 's adult children from his first marriage and his wife of more than 30 years battled in court in the months before Kasem died June 15 at age 82 . Kerri Kasem was given a conservatorship over her father 's health , which Jean Kasem subsequently fought in court , claiming his children were prematurely ending their father 's life . Before Kasem 's death , Jean Kasem removed her ailing husband from a care facility in Santa Monica , California , and took him to stay at the home of family friends in Washington state . After Kasem died , family members complained they did n't know where the body was located . Danny Deraney , the publicist for Kerri Kasem , said last summer that Jean Kasem removed her husband 's body from a funeral home in Washington . On Monday , he said , `` Clearly , the family is not happy and they understand that Jean can bury him wherever she wants , even if it is not what Casey wanted . But the kids are at peace knowing that they got their Dad 's final moments . '' Kasem was already a popular disc jockey in Los Angeles when he became the host of `` American Top 40 '' in 1970 . The syndicated show , which counted down the 40 most popular songs in the United States based on Billboard magazine 's Hot 100 music chart , began on just seven radio stations but quickly became a mainstay of thousands , all around the world . The show inspired imitators , including a television version , `` America 's Top 10 , '' that Kasem hosted .
