Michael Jackson's was presented as the focus for his memorial sitting for more than two hours as celebrities learked under the watchful eyes of millions. back at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Hollywood Hills cemetery, the site of a private family memorial service held before the Staples ceremony.
Where will MJ's body finally be laid to rest? I believe that will be a mystery we all want to solve. Will he be burried at Forest Lawn? Is Neverland Ranch an idea? I have heard rumor of that as well, but we dont know so we cannot even begin to guess. That will be up to his family. The family isn't talking — and may not even have decided yet.
The casket was first seen leaving the mortuary at Forest Lawn and then it arrived at the Staples Center, but some believe that Jacksons body may not have even been in the casket. Where that was heard I am not aure, but as weird as it all has been that would add to the mystery.
Robert J. Biggins, a former president of the National Funeral Directors Association, said Jackson's body is likely in his casket which he identified it as a custom-made, top-of-the-line coffin made by the Indiana-based Batesville Casket Company that is called a "Promethean." The casket is probably in a temporary holding area — perhaps a mausoleum — pending a final location
The Jackson farily seems unsure of what to do it seems but its their will to do as MJ wanted, whatever that may be. Billionaire Thomas Barrack, who owns Neverland in a joint venture with Jackson, has expressed an openness to the idea of having the singer's body buried at the ranch. The family would need to get permission from local land-use officials to bury Jackson on private property, then submit an application and paperwork with the state Cemetery and Funeral Bureau.

I do hope that he gets in death what he could not have in life. He was strange in ways, but given his childhood, whats to blame? Really - he was a kind man with a huge heart. Is that not wwhat matters?
