Jermaine Jackson To Dedicate Life To Michael

August 7, 2009
Jermaine Jackson To Dedicate Life To MichaelThe older brother of Michael Jackson, Jermaine, has announced that he is dedicating the rest of his life to keeping Jackson's message alive so that his memory will not die.

In a recent blog entry Jermaine, 54, stated how he constantly struggles to come to terms with his younger brother's death and wants to raise awareness of the humanitarian work that Jackson did so that the public will honour his memory.

"The tragedy of my brother's death is still with me. But in his death, I have found a mission for my life. My existence is now dedicated to spreading Michael's message. Michael had a unique place in the world. He not only did good, but taught others how to do the same. This only magnifies his loss to the world”, Jermaine said of his brother.

The elder Jackson concluded, "I want to make people aware of the humanitarian side of Michael. I want to show them how his true emphasis wasn't music, or performing; it was improving the world.”
