Tito Jackson was recently laid to rest on earlier this month at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Glendale, California via NY Post.
Members of the Jackson family were photographed at the funeral for the Motown legend, who passed away last month at age 70. The late Michael Jackson’s children Paris, 26, and Bigi, 22 (formerly known as Blanket), were among the relatives there.
Paris had on a black dress, black pantyhose and black boots. Bigi wore a black suit with a white shirt and black tie.
Tito’s siblings La Toya Jackson, 68, and Marlon Jackson, 67, were also in attendance. Tito’s brother Jeremaine’s kids Jaafar, 28, and Jermajesty, 24, and Tito’s ex-wife Delores Jackson were also present.
Kimora Lee Simmons, 49, the ex-wife of music executive Russell Simmons, also attended the funeral.
Tito passed away following a heart attack in a New Mexico shopping center on September 15th. The music icon and his brothers were in Munich, Germany, where they visited a memorial for Michael, days before his death.
Tito’s sons, Taj, 51, TJ, 46, and Taryll, 49, confirmed their dad’s death in a joint statement on September 16th.
“It’s with heavy hearts that we announce that our beloved father, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Tito Jackson is no longer with us,” the siblings said.
“We are shocked, saddened and heartbroken,” their statement continued. “Our father was an incredible man who cared about everyone and their well-being,” the statement continued. “Some of you may know him as Tito Jackson from the legendary Jackson 5, some may know him as ‘Coach Tito’ or some know him as ‘Poppa T.’”
“Nevertheless, he will be missed tremendously,” the brothers added. “It will forever be ‘Tito Time’ for us.’ Please remember to do what our father always preached and that is ‘Love One Another.’ We love you Pops.”
Tito was the the third of 10 children of Katherine and Joe Jackson. He was a member of the Jackson 5 alongside Jermaine, Jackie, Michael and Marlon.
