“At Thursday’s ceremony, held adjacent to the Great Mausoleum, Jackson’s five brothers — Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Randy Jackson — served as pallbearers, according to a statement released by family representatives. Jackson’s three children placed a crown on the casket at the beginning at the service.
Pastor Lucius Smith, who also spoke at Jackson’s memorial at the Staples Center in July, opened the service with a prayer and read from Ecclesiastes 3:7. Motown legend Gladys Knight sang the hymn “His Eye Is on the Sparrow,” and songwriter Clifton Davis sang the Jackson 5 song “Never Can Say Goodbye.” Among those who delivered eulogies were Jackson’s father, Joe, and the Reverend Al Sharpton.
Following the service, Jackson’s brothers carried the casket into the Great Mausoleum, where he was finally laid to rest.”
