I missed the first words, but I think Regis went to the memorial. He was saying that somebody told the story about Michael chasing down the mugger. Kelly brought up how much Bernadette loved Michael and they talked about the famous meeting again.

Oh, they had the memorial already. It just makes me so sad again...

Yeah, a friend of mine told me the memorial was yesterday. I thought it was odd because the Catholic Church (although I don't know if Michael was even Catholic) will not bury anyone on a Sunday; but apparently he was cremated.

Regis just said that he went to the memorial last night, and they talked about Michael, how he learned foreign languages and then Regis said something about him being "adventurous" (may not be exactly right). Then he said they told the story of when a mugger tried to hold Michael up, Michael hit him, did some karate (not sure if that's it), and then ran after the mugger when he ran away, and took his wallet. Something about "mugger to the stars". Then both he and Kelly told the story about how they first met.
Regis said that he and Joy talked to Bernadette for a few minutes.
He did not say where the memorial took place, who else was there, or whether there was any kind of religious ceremony. He also did not say anything at all about how Bernadette is.
The conversation lasted about 3 minutes.
