OCALA, Fla. -- John Travolta and Kelly Preston - along with family and a slew of John's Hollywood contemporaries - said goodbye to their son Jett Thursday.

The Travoltas were joined by Garth Brooks and wife Trisha Yearwood, James Gandolfini , Kirstie Alley , Forest Whitaker and Lisa Maria Presley. John reportedly kissed a large photo of Jett during the memorial service at their Ocala, Florida estate.

The intimate memorial service was kept under tight security, as the caterers, florists and guests arrived -- both by car and by plane, landing next door to the Travolta home.

According to the Ocala Star Banner, the service was short. The 100 guests were seated under a white tent outside the family's main residence.

Jett Travolta died due to a "seizure disorder," according to his death certificate, obtained by Access Hollywood.

The 16-year-old died last week while on vacation with his family at the Old Bahama Bay Hotel on Grand Bahama Island.

    My condolences to the Travolta family. I have always liked John and have always thought that he had too much common sense to belong to a goofy group like the Scientologists.

    I am sorry for your loss. I lost my parents, twin sister, and husband all within 5 years, has been 13 years and I still grieve. I have Jesus in my heart, but I have to say I grieve with you, and still grieve for my loved ones. Jett was a good looking boy as is your daughter. Jesus has him in his arms now. Kelly and John. I love you and so does Jesus. We miss your family, just get better.
