Long Live the King
Saturday, August 29, 2009 at 10:36AM Happy Birthday to my Uncle and Idol Michael Jackson. There will never be another MJ, period. He raised the bar so high that those closest to it can only look up and marvel at how far they have still yet to travel.
The fun we shared and the great memories I have with him will last me a lifetime.

I miss and love him so much and will work hard to make him proud and continue his legacy.

I think Berry Gordy said it best at the Michael Jackson memorial service.
"The King of Pop isn't big enough for him... He is simply the Greatest Entertainer that ever lived."

Hey Taj i'm glad you have posted something like this."There will never be another MJ, period" so true! there is only one Michael Jackson, your uncle. You have been blessed with an uncle so highly talented, so careful, the pure healing kind.
Make him proud! but i'm kind of sure he is already proud of you wherever he is.
Hope all is quite well.
Take care of you Taj.
love you

Taj this is very sweet. I'm sure Michael is very proud. You have always honored your uncle and I know you will help keep his legacy alive. May God continue to bless you and your family.
I love how Michael seems more into the ride than you in the first photo :D
Obviously, we don't know him like you did but people all over the world are celebrating his life and music today and my prayers are with you and your family.
Much love to your family for sharing your uncle, your music and your talent with us for the last 40 years.
Happy Birthday to you, Michael Jackson. Your music will live on forever and just as I grew up with you, I'm sure I'll continue to live on with the gift you gave to the world. God bless your soul.
Taj, I can only speak from the prespective of a devoted fan, but it's safe to say that we all love and miss Michael in ways words can't express. As his nephew, his family, I know you must feel an emptiness right now. I just want to send my thoughts and prayers to you and the entire family. Hoping you find peace in knowing he's happy, making music STILL up in Heaven. And also a great big shout to the fans across the globe who will always love and embrace Michael's music and memory. Love and peace to you all from NYC.
Happy Birthday MJ. You will ALWAYS be in our hearts. We love you, always. XOXOXO

Taj,
my sister Anja and I just want to say thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings. Michael had an influence on all of us. He left his footprints on this planet, and they are here to stay.
He meant so much to each and every one of us, as a family member, as an entertainer, as a teacher, as an icon.
The past weeks have been an emotional rollercoaster that changed our lives forever. There still are no words to describe this horror and pain his passing has caused. There will be so many memories. There will be more lies and accusations and just greed and evilness. But, we know better.
Cause the memories that we have are memories that make us smile. That make us cry happy tears. That make us remember the times we screamed our heads off in concerts. We practiced those moves and tore muscles and cracked up laughing so hard cause we just couldn't do it.
Michael will always be my first love... And my sister and I share so many memories about him...
We will treasure and cherish that.
We send you and the family our love and continued support.
Tina and Anja
PS, my one year old nephew just learned to say Michael. It sounds more like Daddil but he points to the posters... So, we will make sure he grows up loving that man... :*
Hi Taj,
Those photos are so beautiful, and show what a beautiful person Michael was x We are all so privileged to have been the generation who were alive during the same time as 'THE KING'. He was a true genius with so many gifts and talents, there will NEVER be anyone like Michael x
Today I changed my facebook profile pic to one which was taken on July 15th 1997 when I went to the HIStory concert in Wembley Stadium. I will never forget that day, and will never forget your Uncle Michael x
We miss you Michael! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. You are the ONLY first entertainer that I have followed throughout my 36 years on earth.
Love,
Always & Forever
We miss you Michael...Taj, Taryll, Tj, we love you!
Happy Birthday Michael. We miss u. Watch your videos everyday.
Thanks Taj. Love the Music. YOu should tour UK.
Thank you Taj for charing your thoughts and memories with us. I really appreciate it! Michael has always been a big part of my life, he made me who I am, she showed me the world with his eyes. I have learned so much from him. I hope he may rest in peace and I know his legend will life forever, since there's no one like him. Happy Birthday Michael!
xoxo and take care all the way from Germany, Jana :)

Taj, thank you for the pictures.
And your right, nobody can be bigger than your uncle michael!
Thank you for sharing you're memories with us.
He will never be forgotten.
I can't imagine what Prince Michael, Paris, and Blanket are going trough today. I'll be thinking of them.
My little sister at the age of 6, has been singing and dancing all day on Micheal's music. She finds his music kicks ass! So as you see, his music will live even through her generation!
You take care of yourself and you're family.

My thoughts are with you and all the other members of the Jackson family today. I'm hurting so much from Michael's untimely passing - I can't imagine how you all feel.
Happy Birthday Mike!
I miss you so much.

You are so right, Taj. There will NEVER be anyone like Michael. No one will ever be able to take his place. He was such a unique, beautiful person, inside and out, and I miss him SO MUCH! He gave so much to this world during his time here on earth and his beautiful soul will be dearly missed. I just so wish people could have understood him and could have been nicer to him while he lived. Maybe he would still be with us, if people would have treated him with more kindness and understanding. Like Al Sharpton said to Prince, Paris and Blanket during his speech at the memorial: "Was nothing strange about your daddy...it was STRANGE what he had to deal with!". I totally agree. I hope Michael will be able to get his peace now and will only be able to feel love now. He is in a better place now. I hope all of us who were left behind will be able to continue his legacy and will keep believeing in magic and wonderment and the goodness in people, and I hope that together we will be able to heal the world.
Happy birthday Michael and may you rest in peace. Thank you so much for everything you gave us during your time here on earth. The music, the short films, the dance, the shows, the magic, the fun, the laughter, the friends, the beautiful memories. I will love you FOR ALL TIME and I will miss you more than words could ever be able to express. You are the KING OF MUSIC and the greatest entertainer of all time. We will forever remember your kind heart, your beautiful soul, your joyful laughter and your voice of an angel. "The memory of you will bloom like a flower in the garden of my heart!". (From the movie Stowaway with Shirley Temple).
Hey Taj,
It was a sad day when Michael passed away....The one thing that stands out to me, is that america can't deny his talent and the doors he and his brothers opened for many others. Be blessed in all you do. I hoped to hear more from 3T in the present and future.
