Michael Jackson follow up!

The day of Michael's funeral I decided to take a ride back to the Apollo and see if there was anything going on. I was stunned to find 25 yards or so of paper filled with messages for MJ. There was even a plastic tarp placed over the paper that then got signed as well!

It was very touching to see the range of ethnicity and ages that this man and his music influenced. I am sure that that very fact, that his music can bring people together who may not normally be together, was a great source of pride and happiness for Michael.
