Happy Father’s Day, daddy Michael!
“Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine. And I just want to say that I love him so much.” ~Paris Katherine Jackson (11 yrs old at “Daddy’s” public memorial at the Staples Center, Los Angeles)
*********************************************************************************************************************
I lost my father at age 16. Actually, my father had been ill for many years, so I lost him even before he died. But death was final. I didn’t realize, then, the depth of that loss. As the seasons have turned, and my own children have crossed the threshold into adulthood, I more fully realize the devastating impact of losing a father.
Today, on their first Father’s Day without their daddy, my heart grieves for Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson. They lost a particularly devoted, nurturing and loving daddy. They lost a rare and invaluable commodity in the world of today. We can only imagine the grief they feel.
Michael Jackson’s dear children have much to be thankful for in remembering the precious years they shared with the best daddy we could ever imagine.
Happy Father’s Day, daddy Michael.
We hope that you are in a better place, surrounded and filled with L.O.V.E.

Michael’s children were his life ♥
You Are My Life lyrics
Once all alone
I was lost in a world of strangers
No one to trust
On my own, I was lonely
You suddenly appeared
It was cloudy before but now it’s clear
You took away the fear
You brought me back to life
You are the sun
You make me shine
Or more like the stars
That twinkle at night
You are the moon
That glows in my heart
You’re my daytime my nighttime
My world
You’re my life
Now I wake up everyday
With this smile upon my face
No more tears, no more pain
Cause you love me
You help me understand
That love is the answer to all that I am
And I’m a better man
You taught me by sharing your life
You are the sun
You make me shine
Or more like the stars
That twinkle at night
You are the moon
That glows in my heart
You’re my daytime my nighttime
My world
You’re my life
You gave me strength
When I wasn’t strong
You gave me hope when all hope is lost
You opened my eyes when I couldn’t see
Love was always here waiting for me
Another Father’s Day fan tribute to Michael. May he rest in peace ♥
