ATLANTA - The former boyfriend of singer Lisa ``Left Eye'' Lopes calls her ``his heart'' and says her legacy will live on. <br>
<br>
Former Atlanta Falcons receiver Andre Rison tells WSB-TV that Lopes was ``my heart. We're going to let her fly with wings like angels do. She's truly and definitely an angel.'' <br>
<br>
Rison was among family and friends attending a private service for Lopes last night at a funeral home. <br>
<br>
In 1994, Lopes pleaded guilty to arson in a fire that destroyed the million-dollar mansion of Rison. Lopes was sentenced to a halfway house and five years' probation -- plus a $10,000 fine. <br>
<br>
Lopes admitted she started the fire after an argument with Rison. The two later broke up, only to reunite and break up again. Last year, they announced plans to marry, but her publicist says they were not dating when she died.
