ATLANTA, July 26 (UPI) -- A funeral is being planned in Georgia for Usher's 11-year-old stepson, Kile Glover, who died after a water-sport mishap, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said.

Kile is the son of the R&B singer's ex-wife, Tameka Foster.

The child was taken off life support last weekend after he was left brain dead when a personal watercraft struck him as he was towed in an inner tube behind a boat July 6.

The AJC said Kile's funeral is to take place at the Wieuca Road Baptist Church in Atlanta at 11 a.m. Friday.
