Michael Jackson, undated note to Lisa (archived) (pulled from “Julien’s Auctions”)

Lisa I truly need this rest I haven't slept literally in 4 days now. I need to be away from phones and Business people. I must take care of my health first. I’m crazy for you.

Love, Turd

Lisa Marie Presley, statement regarding Forest Lawn, “Myspace” blog (May 12, 2010) (archived)

Greetings MJ Fans....While visiting him a few days ago at Forest Lawn , Riley and I couldn't help but notice that , while there are a few bouquets , candles and gifts there is a very large empty space around him and in front of him that could use a whole lot more.While , I am sure that the staff at The Holly Terrace do their very best to place what is sent and what is placed at the door at his tomb ,  I thought you might like to know that he would want and deserves  more than what is there and I had an idea.......Some may or may not know this but his favorite flower was the Sunflower.They made him happy because they looked happy to him  ,  Thus, he called them "The Happy Flower".When we were married , I would try and fill up rooms with them  wherever he was.I wanted to bring something to place near him that he liked and that wouldn't die so I brought a large vase of silk sunflowers and placed them near him.This barely made any kind of dent  in the atmosphere so I thought of maybe letting those who care know what the situation is and how we can solve it.I know how much he loved and appreciated being showered with Gifts and flowers by his fans , I thought if whoever wants to bought just one silk sunflower each and sent it , the whole area around him and in front of him (As well as the two large empty vases that sit on either side of him) could be filled up in no time , which would be much more appropriate than what the current status is right now.We can all cause a "Sun shower"  if you will...........He deserves to be flooded and surrounded , LETS SURROUND HIM!Lots of Love,~LMP

Michael is a true artist in every facet of its nature—extremely aesthetic and very, very romantic. This is who he truly is despite degrading comments made in the past by certain larva.

Michael, as well as myself, have been severely underestimated and misunderstood as human beings. I can’t wait for the day when all the snakes who have tried to take him out get to eat their own lunch and crawl back in the holes from which they came.

We know who they are and their bluff is about to be called.

With MJ, unfortunately, too much happened, too much got between us. There was a very deep strong love there; intense. But people got in the way, on my end and his end. We had so many people telling us what to do and intercepting and speaking on behalf of the other. Had it been just he and I, towards the end, I don't think we would have divorced.
