Michael Jackson's body is traveling to Neverland Ranch for a public viewing on Friday for fans who want to make the pilgrimage. Jackson's private memorial service is planned for Sunday, though it's unclear where he will be buried. Officials of his hometown, Gary, Indiana, are asking the pop icon be buried next to a planned Michael Jackson museum. The town is holding its own memorial service for Jackson on July 10, which will be "a memorial that's fit for the prince of peace and a memorial that's fit for Gary, Indiana's favorite son, the greatest entertainer that ever lived," according to Gary's mayor.
