Los Angeles ( CNN ) -- Mickey Rooney 's wife has agreed to drop a legal claim over her husband 's remains , according to Rooney conservator Michael Augustine . Rooney will be buried at Hollywood Forever cemetery following a private family service , Augustine said , instead of another cemetery plot he bought years ago before splitting with his wife . Hollywood Forever is the final resting place of Rudolph Valentino , Cecil B. DeMille and a long list of show biz A-listers . A date for the funeral will be decided next week , Augustine said . Augustine said he 'll approach studio leaders about holding another memorial service the public can attend . The agreement between Jan Rooney and Augustine , reached just before a court hearing on the dispute Friday , also bans Rooney 's estranged stepson Chris Aber from attending the service . Rooney died Sunday of natural causes at age 93 . While Rooney disinherited his children , his wife and all but one of her children in a will he signed just weeks before his death , court papers suggest there is not much in his estate to fight over . His personal property is valued at just $ 18,000 despite an unmatched 90-year film career . Augustine had said in a court filing that he believed Rooney 's estranged wife , Jan Rooney , and her son , Christopher Aber , would attempt to remove Rooney 's body from Forest Lawn Memorial Park 's mortuary . A Los Angeles judge signed a handwritten order Tuesday preventing anyone from removing Rooney 's remains until Friday 's hearing .

The will signed by Rooney on March 11 , 2014 , left the entire estate to stepson Mark Rooney , one of Jan Rooney 's sons , who was the actor 's caretaker the last two years of his life . Rooney had no negative feelings toward his surviving children , but they were all financially better off than he was , Augustine said . He believed what little he had to leave should go to Mark Rooney and his wife , because they had been taking good care of him in the final two years , Augustine said . Augustine acknowledged hearing `` grumbling '' from Rooney 's family members about being left out of the estate but said none of the others `` ever changed one of Mickey 's Depends ( adult undergarments ) .
