Janet Jackson Leads Mourners To Bury Father

Janet Jackson led mourners at a private funeral service for her father, Joe Jackson yesterday in California. The patriarch of the American musical dynasty passed away last Wednesday age 89 after losing his battle with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

His private memorial service was held at Forest Lawn in Glendale. His son and King of Pop, Michael Jackson, was laid to rest at the memorial park back in 2009.

Relatives were seen outside the service dressed in black attire.

The family announced a public ceremony would also be held in Los Angeles in honor of the late musical manager, but did not provide details on a specific place and time.
