He returned to Gary Indiana in 03.
agree! and I think MJ wouldn't be happy to be linked to that underdeveloped place which he'd no link since he was teenager.
i read some where that kids are going to speak at private memorial in gary ,if it is true then i don't think kids are going to get their privacy.SMH

MJ was not a snob. He had great empathy for places like GARY. He was damn proud of his birth home, under-developed or not.
Will the fans still be able to go to Forest Lawn if the family isn't there though?
I think they will. Forest Lawn never said the fans would not be allowed.
I read somewhere that the security guards complained some months ago and they were not going to let the fans in anymore after the complaint, and that's why randy ask forest lawn to allow fans in.

I appriciate the fact she wants to get them out of LA because of the chaos and the glare of the media but by making it public it is going to have the opposite affect because its just going to draw much unwanted attention.
If she had the kids best interests at heart she wouldnt have said anything
Well put beside the last line because i've always wanted to go to neverland lol.Wow, some of these remarks about Gary are misguided. Los Angeles did not create Michael Jackson; he is the fruit (but not only that) of a long musical and dance tradition of the industrial north. It is like the difference between Liverpool and London for the Beatles, or Memphis and LA for Elvis.
The Chicago Soul Sound arose from its place as the center of black gospel music: heavy on the vocal harmonies. Michael's earliest influences were music and dance peers in Indiana and Chicago, of whom there were many, James Brown, Jackie Wilson (on a Chicago label) and later, Motown. He was performing when he was 3 years old. His first influences remained his most profound ones. Not that he didn't add on.
His blackness is essential to his music; all American popular music has the South as its basis. That music came from the South to the northern Midwest. Manhattan and LA didn't have jack to do with its creation.
Let's hope we never lose these authentic places of real creativity. They are the places people come from to NY or LA.
As to his not being buried there, there is nothing wrong with visiting the place where a person is born either. It is perhaps more inspiring. I find the strangest place to visit is Neverland myself, but that's just me.
But, one love.

Seems Michael wishes to keep his children out of the limelight and media scruteny were fufilled
His children were not part of either specticle _ It was very wise to keep them away from both
events which were heavily coveredand scrutenised by the FANS and by the media.
Thank you Katherine you did the right thing Grandma
The adults and are able to handle this but Michaels children still need to
be protected and have their privacy .. We dont know how these events may
have effected ther precious hearts. Michael is always with them in thier hearts
They dont need to be paraded around in these events -They are still to young for all that.

Mjrulesdaworld I think you should hone up on your MJ history before you speak for him in this matter.
We know Mjs character and he wouldntr jusge a place on those meriits_ he loved many underdevoped places
on this earth and had he a connention and empathy for those places (Im not saying Gary is underdeveloped )
just trying to get a point across of what is important in the heart of this man. He didnt judge by your standards
There are plenty of videos and articles about Michael's visit to Gary IN
and his plan to help create a performing arts museum thier _ named after him.
There are many many videos of his visit and his feeling about his home town
if you care to watch _ just search on youtube or google "Michael Jackson visits Gary Indiana"
