Celebrities, Musicians, Politicians, and fans from all walks
of life flocked to the Staples Center, in Los Angeles California today for
Michael Jackson's Memorial. During the memorial we heard from Rev. Jessie Jackson, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant and others. We heard songs by Lionel
Richie, and Mariah Carey. But the most touching moment by far must have been
when Michael Jackson's 11 year old
daughter, Paris talked about her Daddy.
"I just want to say ever since I was born, Daddy has
been the best father you can ever imagine. And I just wanted to say I love him
so much," Paris-Michael Jackson said before almost collapsing in the arms
of her aunt Janet Jackson.
As much as we either reviled him for his checkered past or
loved him for musical ability, I believe sometimes we forget he is a human
being. A son, a father...a man. We might miss his songs but Paris just lost her
dad.
