« Because of his humanity and generosity, his beautiful innocence, his wise words and messages, his sense of humor, his modesty, honesty, his strength, perseverance and endurance (he never gave up), his beautiful smile, his ability to never stop loving other people while he was a victim of torture and injustice himself constantly, and because of his beautiful name: Michael, the name of an angel! »

I am a fan since I was 9 years old in 1969, so I grew up with Michael and the Jackson5, for which I am still so grateful every day. I am terribly sad and miss Michael so much every day, although I know he is always here with  us. I love Michael of course because of his extreme talents of singing and dancing, but I love him most of all because of his humanity and generousity, his beautiful innocence, his wise words and messages, his sense of humor, his modesty, honesty, his strenght, perseverance and endurance (he never gave up), his beautiful smile, his ability to never stop loving other people while he was a victim of torture and injustice himself constantly, and i love him because of his beautiful name: Michael, the name of an angel! My sister Justine is together with me also fan for already 40 years. Since the very beginning we have laughed and cried s
o many times together. We have always written letters to Michael when he came to the Amsterdam and we are so grateful that we could live to see him in the flesh  in his BAD-, Dangerous- and History-concerts; an experience that we will never forget. His radiation is impossible to describe. Especially when we had the luck to see him arrive several times at his hotel in Amsterdam and when he was waving and blowing kisses back to us. The joy and happiness he brought to us at that moment is not possible to describe. And the moment when he looked in the eyes of my little 6 year old daughter Tarika from a very short distance is a true blessing… At that moment hundreds of people were screaming and waving to Michael by the gate of his hotel in Amsterdam; Michael was behind the gate and we were on the other side, the outside, only meters away; in all the crazy hectic another fan that I do not know at all (there is no fan like a MJ-fan!)at once grabbed my child and took her away from me to put her on his shoulders, so she could see Michael from a vèry close distance. And then – in all the fans’ crazyness, I don’t know the proper word in english, but screaming so loud, people crying and laughing- Michael gave my daughter a look that was sóó calm and intense ..it was the look of a true angel; never in our entire life we will forget the look that he gave her and we know that we will never experience a look like Michael’s look ever again. We are so grateful for that experience. At that time my sister and me have done some charitywork (volunteers) for the Heal the World Foundation in London by raising money and donate it to HTWF; we did that in the school of our children by organising fancy fairs there or at second hand markets where we sold old items that we gathered from friends and other people who found these things in their sheds and atics, and we organised our birthdayparties in cafés and asked all our family and friends to not give presents to us, but instead to support Michaels HTWFoundation with a gift; that was such a wonderful time in both our lives. But alas, we think because of alle negative news in the media, the office in London had to close down. That was so very very sad for Michael and the children in need. After that we also had some difficulties and sickness in our own lives, but Michael always brought the light in our lives and gave us hope, and still today he gives us the spirit that we need. Every day! We hope that very soon in the future we can finally start making plans again to reach our goal: start helping Michael again in our own small way.. thank you forever Michael for giving your beautiful messages to the world. All your messages I teach my 3 daughters and we will never stop listening to your beautiful music, your fantastic lyrics and all your wise words. We will never stop loving you: you are our hero, our angel, always and forever!!!! xxxxxx… Love you so much. Thank you again forever.
