Michael Jackson’s Hometown plans Memorial Service
Michael Jackson’s hometown of Gary, Indiana is preparing a tribute to mark the one year anniversary of his death.
Thousands of people are expected to gather to listen to speeches, watch performances and participate in a candle virgil.
Michael’s mother Katherine had workers renovate and spruce up the house Tuesday for the event with a new roof, a fresh coat of white paint and newly poured concrete along the walkway and driveway.
The house was also surrounded by a black wrought iron fence, had new sod installed and some bushes awaiting to be planted.
Gary Mayor Rudy Clay says Katherine Jackson will attend the event with her granddaughter, Genevieve Jackson.
