The remains of Jasmine Fiore are still waiting to be scattered in their final resting place.
The former Playboy model will have her ashes spread in Santa Cruz and her family would like her jailed former husband Michael Cardosi to be present, RadarOnline.com can reveal exclusively.
Fiore – who was brutally murdered by Ryan Jenkins – had a funeral service attended by 200 friends at a ranch belonging to Joanna Miller the granddaughter of Walt Disney, but Cardosi was unable to attend as he was in jail.

Cardosi tragically met-up with his ex wife only a few days before she was killed by Ryan Jenkins on Friday, August 14, 2009.
A family insider told RadarOnline.com that Jasmine’s mom Lisa Lepore still has Jasmine’s ashes in an urn and she would like Cordosi to be present when they are scattered in Santa Cruz.
“This is where Jasmine grew-up and is also where Michael and her met before they got married.
Cardosi’s mom says he was set to reunite with Jasmine
“Lisa really likes Michael and would like him to be present for this final act with her daughter’s remains.
“Lisa and some of her friends are preparing a second memorial service for Jasmine in Las Vegas because she had a lot of friends there and she loved that city too.”
Cardosi – who is serving time on drugs related charges – was left broken-hearted that his former love was killed in what detectives believe could have been a jealous fit when Jenkins became enraged after he found out the pair had met.

Cardosi and Fiore were spotted kissing and cuddling on a California beach in a romantic rendezvous where she did not wear her wedding ring.
The source added: “Michael is still really having a tough time getting over Jasmine and the jail he is in is a very tough facility that was hit by prison riots recently.
“He is in lockdown 23 hours a day, so, it is not the best environment - if he could be present when Jasmine’s ashes are finally scattered then that would mean a lot to him.

Megan may be getting another shot at reality stardom, however.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, VH1 is looking into building another show around her in the near future.

The mother of Jasmine's first husband Michael Cardosi told RadarOnline.com exclusively that her son had hoped to reconcile with the model
EXCLUSIVE: Slain Model Jasmine Fiore’s Ex Was To Reunite With Her Says His Mom
Posted on Sep 04, 2009 @ 04:10PM - 11 comments
The mother of Jasmine Fiore’s ex-husband told RadarOnline.com that her son Michael Cardosi held out hopes of rekindling a romance with the stunning model before she was brutally murdered by another ex, Ryan Jenkins. The pair even saw one another days before she died.
Michael Cardosi – who was married to Fiore for three years – reunited with her on a Southern California beach while he was out on parole for a drugs-related crime. They were spotted being affectionate with one another but three days later she was dead.
“When Michael told me that Jasmine had died we just collapsed and fell into one another’s arms sobbing,” Winnie Humphreys told Radar Online.com. “He told me ‘Mom she was the love of my life – we were soul mates’. He was absolutely devastated.”
A former construction worker and bartender, Cardosi was recently put back in jail for violating his parole conditions and Humphreys was fearful for his health after Fiore’s passing. He was released from Riverside County Jail on Friday.
“Michael was terribly depressed when he went back into prison and I was really worried for him because he truly loved Jasmine,” she said. “They had known each other for eight years and had been through some good and bad times together but always stayed in touch even when Michael was sent to jail.”
The pair were married in 2003 and shared homes together in Santa Cruz and San Diego before getting divorced in 2006.
“They loved each other very much but the truth was Jasmine was capable of having multiple relationships. I liked Jasmine as a person but she and my son were too similar in a lot of ways. They both liked to party and have a good time and their relationship was very volatile at times.”
As late as last week, Cardosi was still hurting from the loss of Fiore: “I last spoke with him six days ago and he was still very depressed over what happened to his former wife. I’m worried that he may never get over her sudden and tragic loss.”
