children has gone so unexpectedly, in such a tragic way and much too soon. It leaves us, his

family, speechless and devastated to a point, where communication with the outside world

seems almost impossible at times.

We miss Michael endlessly, our pain cannot be described in words. But Michael would not

want us to give up now. So we want to thank all of his faithful supporters and loyal fans

worldwide, you - who Michael loved so much. Please do not despair, because Michael will

continue to live on in each and every one of you. Continue to spread his message, because

that is what he would want you to do. Carry on, so his legacy will live forever.


My grandchildren are deeply moved by all the love and support you have shown for them

and their father, Michael Jackson."
