Michael Jackson’s Hometown Wants To Bury Him There, Have Him Lie in State
With Michael Jackson ’s public viewing coming up, the question remains where the King of Pop will be laid to rest. As we mentioned earlier , a public viewing has been confirmed for this Friday at Neverland Ranch, followed by a private memorial service scheduled for Sunday. But, now, Rudy Clay, the mayor of Jackson’s hometown of Gary, Indiana, is contacting the Jackson family in order to make get MJ there - and keep him there! And even if Jackson won’t be buried in Indiana, they at least want to hold a memorial service. In fact, a memorial service has already been set for July 10th at the U.S. Steel Works ballpark in Gary. According to Clay, “I believe that his body will lie in state in Gary, Indiana. Now, it may not happen, but I believe it will.” Adding that it would be “a memorial that’s fit for the prince of peace and a memorial that’s fit for Gary, Indiana’s favorite son, the greatest entertainer that ever lived.” As for the burial site, it can go near a proposed Jackson family museum and performing arts center. But, we’re guessing the final decision might be up to Jackson’s parents - or his own will! [ Image via WENN .]
