Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King, and her brother Martin Luther King III, spoke at Michael Jackson's service.
Bernice told an interesting story about how MJ called her mother to offer encouragement during her last illness. She couldn't speak because of a stroke, but listened as he talked to her by phone.
"She listened as he said to her he had been praying on his knees for her every day. He wanted to know what music was being played in her room, because of its healing effect.
"If he only could have seen the glow on her face," King said.
"That day, Michael Jackson made our mother's face smile in spite of her condition. What an unforgettable moment. He was such a thoughtful and selfless man, full of the unconditional love of God and good works that touch and change lives.
"In remembrance of Michael, may we all be inspired to go and let our lights shine."
