I'm with you except not Debbie. She would only want the two that are hers and I don't think it would be fair to the kids for them to be split up after the only parent they knew died. One of the Aunts or Uncles would be best, IMO.

Amen to that. That is when I quit watching the memorial.

I cried like a baby, too. I saw Paris talk about her dad online after the show and that really made me cry. Poor girl. I feel so bad for those kids. I was 35 when my dad passed and I felt lost...I can't imagine being that young when it happens.

She wasn't invited.

It was such a beautiful memorial service...very fitting for MJ...I haven't been able to compose myself since Paris spoke....where were all these celebrities when he was labeled a "freak" and a child molester? Was Brooke Shields at the courthouse? How about Queen Latifa? I don't remember Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson and the others coming to his side when he needed them the most.

I never realized there was a third sister. Was she at the memorial today? And I noticed there were 5 men in the gold ties....who was the 5th man?

Yeah Rebbie is a singer also. Rebbie had a hit back in the day too. I really am taking this whole thing really hard. My childhood is full of so many memories of concerts, and songs to go with memories. Those children just look so lost without him. The idea of Debbie Rowe getting her clutches on them makes me ill.

There were six Jackson sons. The five guys were all Michael's brothers, luvsginger.

She has been quoted as saying she would take all three rather than break the children up,

My father's been gone for some time but Pari's words to/about her dad tore at me too.
IMO you never really stop missing your dad.

My childhood also, I'm 54 and grew up in Chicago, and saw The Jackson 5 perform twice, and my greatest memory was a song called "Big Boy." I had it on a 45 record, and one of my dogs chewed it up!

I remember in high school driving to Gary (20 minutes) looking for them, and my friends and I took a picture in front of 2300 Jackson street. (They had already moved to Cali) duh!

I am still crying tonight!
