Gone Too Soon.

In memory of the late Michael Jackson, two coffin-like vaults were filled with stuffed animals, photos and other items that were put outside Detroit’s Motown Historical Museum by fans and were buried at Woodlawn Cemetery.

A small funeral procession was leading by city officials. It included two hearses packed with items from the museum to the cemetery where there were two donated plots, vaults and a granite headstone engraved with a tribute to Jackson.

Some 40 people attended the ceremony.

The tombstone read: “The King of Pop Michael Jackson August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009. Songwriter, Singer, Producer, Dancer, Choreographer, Humanitarian, Jackson 5 member, Soloist, 11 #1 Singles, 13 Grammys, 192 Awards & 37 Top 40 Hits, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Motown Legend. Gone Too Soon.”
