Michael Jackson

1958 - 2009




Goodbye. And thank you.






















Mr. Jackson once asked “Why are people so mean?”

Good question. And with all the crying while leaving cards and flowers, signing billboards, and screaming I-love-you's now that the man is dead, an equally good question might be: Where was all the love when he was alive?

People are flocking to his memorial right now, squealing about winning tickets and acting like they’re about to see a concert, when a man - son; brother; friend; father; icon; consummate entertainer; humanitarian - has died. Family and those who knew him personally are hurting, and will for a long time. Some respect please, public and media alike.



"Smile, though your heart is aching..."

My heart goes out to the family and friends of Mr. Jackson.

With sincere condolences,
Hawke
