    That's so sad, another good person/friend lost.<br />Thanks Applehead, I enjoyed the video! Very touching. <br />He did beautiful work, a labor of love and art for Michael to always look so amazing afraid/ :oops: .<br />I wonder if MJ went in disguise to the funeral... ;)

    His work is stunning. Rest in Peace :cry:
  • Thank you for sharing this. I've been trying to find the information - but didn't Michael's other costume designer die a few months ago or am I mistaken?<br /><br />If this is true my heart goes out to Michael and those that are mourning their loss. May Dennis rest in peace. However, there seems to be a theme here and in my somewhat twisted mind I expect them all to be risen from the dead with Michael, much like Thriller. Sorry, I don't mean to be disrespectful. There just seems to be too many close to Michael lost over the past couple of years.<br /><br />It's almost like that saying, three can hold a secret if two of them are dead? Dennis is one of two that owned the Thriller jacket that brought 1.8 million at auction this past summer. I wonder if he sold it knowing his time on earth was short. He was also one of three that supposedly saw and dressed Michael for the final time.<br /><br />Prayers and blessings to all.

    <br /><br />[size=10pt]Voiceforthesilent I know very well what are you talking about,believe me  :( !!! From my part you are not disrespectful at all,because I thought at that too  :oops: .Since 2009 many people around Michael left us and I have to admit that in my country some strange things happened also  :? .Who knows maybe I'm delusional but I really feel that this things has to do with Michael also,especially because OF THE WAY that happened  :?.THE RISEN FROM THE DEAD is a theme from the Bible,it's something that has to do with religion and I have to admit that religion is not my favourite subject.I like Michael,I have many questions about the Bible and what really happened during that time.Some things are not very clear to me and just like Michael asked that BURDEN QUESTIONS to the elders,I ask the same.Unfortunately Michael didn't received the answers he expected and so that I .I'm sorry  :( .[/size]
  • All of these people who surrounded Michael who’ve died makes me very sad, especially today  :cry:  Rest in peace Dennis Tompkins.  You did Michael Jackson proud and it shows.  God Bless you.

    Beyond the news of the death of Dennis Tomkins, I think of Michael. How will you feel with the death of another friend and colleague of many years working for him. The truth is that Dennis made ​​me wonder, about the death of Mike, when I cry in the TV interview. and Mike said he dressed for his funeral.
