Smile - Nat King Cole

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though its breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, youll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Farewell

"Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine.. And I just wanted to say I love him so much.."
- Paris Katherine Jackson

"Micheal was one of a kind"
- Brooke Shields

"Michael, when you left us, a part of me went with you. ... I will treasure the good times, singing, dancing, laughing. ... We will never understand what he endured ... being judged, ridiculed. How much pain can one take? Maybe, now, Michael, they will leave you alone."
- Marlon Jackson.

"I'm here representing millions of fans around the world who grew up listening to Michael, being inspired and loving Michael from a distance. ... Somehow when Michael Jackson sang and when he danced ... we felt he was right there. ... He made you believe in yourself."
- Queen Latifah.

"This is a moment that I wish that I didn't live to see come. But as much as I can say that and mean it, I do know that God is good and I do know that as much as we may feel - and we do - that we need Michael here with us, God must have needed him far more."
- Stevie Wonder.

"You don't think you'll live to see them gone. ... He is going to live forever and ever and ever and ever."
- Smokey Robinson

Your music lives on.. you will never be forgotten..
Micheal Joseph Jackson
(August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009)
