 "To give someone a piece of your heart,
is worth more than all the wealth in the world.”
~ Michael Jackson


One Rose for Michael J. Jackson - Pay It Forward:
Also we are once again privileged to "Pay It Forward." Last year MJ fans delivered many buckets of roses to surprised, homeless women veterans at a Los Angeles Veterans woman's shelter. It is with great joy that we are able to share the wonderful consequences of our act of LOVE. As a result of this giving gesture of LOVE in Michael's memory a seed was planted in the heart of an anonymous person present that day who witnessed the joy and appreciation the ladies experienced as they embraced their roses. 
Our simple act of generosity grew exponentially as this anonymous donor personally took it upon themselves to continue the gift of flowers to the women veterans by generously delivering flowers every month after June 26th for the entire 2012 year. The smiles and LOVE grew and grew all year long with these regular flower deliveries. What an incredible thing! I am so proud and appreciative to be a apart of such a beautiful expression of LOVE. I do believe Michael is smiling down from heaven above.

Thank you to everyone who bought roses last year as you can hold in your hearts that you were also apart of this beautiful, loving gesture as we "Paid It Forward in Michael's Memory."

Flowers were also taken last year to Baby Land and Lullaby Land at Forest Lawn, Glendale. Where Michael's Holly Terrace over looks the babies buried there. This is a perfect way to show respect and honor to these little souls whose parents and families no longer visit. This is the one time of year that flowers are showered down on them as well... in Michael's memory as we "Pay it Forward."


Sparrs Senior Center in Glendale was thrilled to be gifted with buckets of red roses for seniors to enjoy as they ate their meals in the cafeteria stage area. Sparrs reaches out to both Seniors and young children as a social gathering place and Performing Arts Community Center. This made it the perfect place for our rose donation in Michael's memory. The buckets of roses much to our delight were placed center stage right where Michael will always belong.

Excerpt from a Face Book post by Robyn Starkand:
"We will again this year pay the love forward in Michael's name donating the roses on June 26th to less fortunate people, bringing them joy and love, also included in this we will be bringing buckets of roses to Baby Land and Lullaby Land at Forest lawn as we did last year.... Michael will again be smiling down on us for continuing his message of love."
Thank you all for your love and support,
One Rose for Michael J. Jackson

"To give someone a piece of your heart, is worth more than all the wealth in the world.”

(Donner à quelqu'un une partie de son cœur vaut plus que toutes les richesses du monde)


♥ One Rose for Michael J. Jackson - " redistribuer à des tiers "
Aussi encore une fois nous avons le privilège de "redistribuer à des tiers " . L'année dernière les fans de MJ ont livré plusieurs seaux de roses à des femmes d'anciens combattants SDF qui étaient surprises  au refuge de "la femme des anciens combattants " de Los Angeles. C'est avec une grande joie que nous pouvons partager les merveilleux résultats de notre acte d' AMOUR. Suite à notre geste  d'AMOUR en mémoire à Michael, une graine a été plantée dans le cœur d'une personne anonyme présente ce jour là qui a été témoin de la joie et de la reconnaissance éprouvées par les femmes qui recevaient leurs roses.

Notre simple geste de générosité a pris une telle ampleur puisque que ce donneur anonyme a décidé personnellement de continuer le don de fleurs aux femmes d'anciens combattants  en livrant généreusement des fleurs chaque mois après le 26 juin pendant toute l'année 2012. Les sourires et l' AMOUR ont été de plus en plus nombreux tout au long de l'année avec ces livraisons régulières de fleurs. Quelle chose incroyable !! Je suis si fière et reconnaissante de participer à une si belle expression de l'AMOUR. Je crois que Michael est en train de sourire depuis les Cieux.
Merci à toutes les personnes qui ont acheté des roses l'année dernière comme cela peut vous tenir  à cœur de participer aussi à ce beau geste d'amour car nous  "redistribuons à des tiers" en mémoire à Michael.

Le fleurs ont aussi été apportées l'année dernière à Baby Land et Lullaby Land à Forest Lawn, à Glendale. Où l'Holly Terrace de Michael surplombe les bébés enterrés là. C'est la meilleure façon de montrer du respect et d'honorer ces petites âmes qui ne reçoivent plus de visites de leurs parents et leurs familles. C'est la seule fois de l'année que des fleurs leurs sont déposées aussi .. en mémoire à  Michael car nous "redistribuons à des tiers "
Le centre "Sparrs senior" à Glendale  a été ravi de recevoir en cadeau des seaux de roses rouges pour divertir les séniors lorsqu' ils mangeaient leur repas dans l'espace de la scène de la cafétéria. Le Sparrs tend la main à la fois aux seniors et aux jeunes enfants comme  lieu de rassemblement social  et centre de la communauté des arts de la scène. Ceci a rendu l'endroit parfait pour notre don de roses en mémoire à Michael. A notre grand joie, les seaux de roses ont été placés au centre de la scène , juste à l'endroit auquel Michael appartiendra toujours . ♥

Extrait d'un post Facebook de Robyn Starkand :
" Cette année encore, nous redistribuerons l'amour reçu au nom de Michael en donnant les roses le 26 Juin aux personnes moins fortunées en leur apportant de la joie et de l'amour , tout comme nous apporterons des seaux de roses à Baby Land et Lullaby Land à Forest Lawn comme nous l'avons fait l'année dernière.. Michael nous sourira encore de là haut pour la continuité de son message d'amour "
Merci pour votre amour et votre support One Rose for Michael J. Jackson

♥ Una Rosa Para Michael J. Jackson – ‘Paga De Vuelta’: (Te ofrece crecimiento espiritual para volver a centrarte a ti mismo, y servir a los demás.)
También tenemos una vez más el privilegio de "Pagar De Vuelta".  El año pasado, los fans de MJ entregamos muchos cubos de rosas a sorprendidas viejitas sin hogar, en el refugio de Los Angeles. Es con gran alegría que podemos compartir las maravillosas consecuencias de nuestro gesto de A.M.O.R. Como resultado de este gesto de dar A.M.O.R. en memoria de Michael se plantó una semilla en el corazón de una persona anónima presente ese día, que fue testigo de la alegría y el agradecimiento de las señoras experimentaron mientras se abrazaban a sus rosas.

Nuestro simple acto de generosidad creció exponencialmente a medida que este donante anónimo personalmente se encargó de continuar con el regalo de flores a las viejitas.  Generosamente ha entregado  flores cada mes después de junio 26 por todo el año 2012. Las sonrisas y A.M.O.R. crecieron y crecieron durante todo el año con estas entregas regulares de flores. ¡Qué cosa tan increíble! Me siento muy orgullosa y agradecida de ser parte de ESTA hermosa expresión de A.M.O.R. Creo que Michael está sonriendo desde arriba en el cielo.

¡Gracias a todos los que compraron rosas el año pasado. También Uds. pueden  guardar las rosas en sus corazones porque también fueron parte de este gesto hermoso, amoroso como nosotros "Pagar De Vuelta” en memoria de Michael.

El año pasado se llevaron flores también  a “Baby Land” (Tierra de los Bebés) y Lullaby Land, (Tierra De Las Canciones De Cuna)  en Forest Lawn, Glendale.  La tumba de Michael en Holly Terrace (Terraza Santa) tiene  vista,  sobre Baby LAnd y Lullaby Land, es decir sobre las tumbas de los bebés enterrados allí. Esta es una manera perfecta de mostrar respeto y honor a estas pequeñas almas cuyos padres y las familias ya no los visitan. Este es el momento del año las flores son una lluvia sobre ellos, así es como las rosas “Pagan De Vuelta” en memoria de Michael.

El Centro Sparrs Senior en Glendale estaba encantado de estar dotados con cubos de rosas rojas para las personas mayores que disfrutaban mientras comían su comida en la zona del escenario-cafetería.  Sparrs es un lugar que se extiende tanto a los mayores como a los niños pequeños como un lugar de reunión social y Centro de Artes Escénicas de la Comunidad. Esto hizo que éste fuera el lugar perfecto para nuestra donación de rosas en memoria de Michael. Los cubos de rosas para nuestro regocijo se colocaron justo en el centro del escenario, el lugar donde Michael siempre pertenecerá ♥

Extracto de una excelente publicación de  Robyn Starkand en el Facebook:
"Una vez más este año el amor “Paga De Vuelta” en el nombre de Michael con la donación de las rosas el 26 de junio a las personas menos afortunadas, llevándoles alegría y amor, también se incluyen recipientes de  rosas a la Tierra De Los Bebés (Baby Land) y a la Tierra De Las Canciones de Cuna  (Lullaby Land) en Forest Lawn como lo hicimos el año pasado .... Michael volverá a estar sonriéndonos por continuar con su mensaje de amor.”
Gracias a todos por su amor y apoyo,
One Rose Para Michael J. Jackson

Это очень хорошая новость!
 
С большой радостью и счастьем сообщаю, и снова могу объявить в этом году, что "Одна роза Для Майкла Дж. Джексона" снова состоится. Еще раз спасибо за ваше проявление любви и заботы! Мы, MJ фанаты, которые усердно работали, чтобы сделать это реальностью для Майкла Джексона и его поклонников по всему миру, снова будем иметь честь создать покрывало из роз для Майкла с любовью в виде моря красных роз сорта «Свобода».



♥ поклонники Майкла прольют снова дождь из красных роз над местом упокоения Майкла на Forest Lawn, Holly Terrace в этом году на 4-й годовщине ухода Майкла от нас.
 

♥ Захватывающие красные розы повсюду для Майкла Джексона на Holly Terrace в его честь в годовщину его смерти, 25 июня 2013 года.


♥ Благодаря двум девушкам, Робин и Сарре, их невероятной, тяжелой работе, представляется сделать возможным это событие для MJ поклонников по всему миру, чтобы продолжать показывать свою любовь к Майклу самым потрясающим образом в июне 25 числа. Событие, которое происходит каждый год, начиная с 1-й годовщины его кончины.



♥ Каждый год мы показываем Майклу свою любовь удивительно красивым и ярким способом , это заявление о нашей любви перед всем миром, что Майкл всегда будет любим безмерно и всегда будет в наших сердцах, никогда не будет забыт.





Мы продолжаем подниматься выше! Любовь побеждает!


♥ цена составляет $ 3,00 за одну красную розу с длинным стеблем сорта «Свобода» ♥



ПОЖАЛУЙСТА, ОБРАТИТЕ ВНИМАНИЕ: Как и в прошлом году расчетная стоимость розы включает в себя сборы, деньги на процессинг, расходы на грузоперевозку, налоги и другие расходы. После указанных сборов, все оставшиеся деньги пойдут на покупку добавочных роз.Отдать кому-то кусочек своего сердца,
стоит больше, чем все богатства мира ».

 ~ Michael Jackson




♥ Одна Роза для Майкла Дж. Джексона – мероприятие Pay It Forward:
 
Кроме того, мы еще раз имеем честь провести мероприятие "Pay It Forward". В прошлом году MJ фанаты привезли и подарили множество ведер роз удивленным обитателям, дома для женщин-ветеранов в приюте для бездомных в Лос-Анджелесе. Такая большая радость, что мы можем поделиться замечательным плодами нашей демонстрации любви! И как результат этого жеста любви в памяти Майкла семя любви было посажено в сердце каждого, ибо в тот день каждый был свидетелем радости и признательности дам из приюта, когда они получили розы в подарок.
  Наш простой акт щедрости вырос в геометрической прогрессии после того, как некий анонимного донор лично взял на себя обязательство продолжить этот цветочный «розовый» дар женщинам-ветеранам, щедро пообещав доставлять цветы каждый месяц после 26 июня в течение всего 2012 года. Улыбки и любовь росла и росла в течение всего года с этими регулярными поставками цветов. Какая невероятная вещь! Я так горжусь и благодарна быть частью этой такой красивой акции выражения любви. Я верю: Майкл улыбается с небес.

Спасибо всем, кто купил розы в прошлом году, так как вы можете считать себя участниками прекрасного жеста любви Pay It Forward."



Цветы также были доставлены в прошлом году на участки под названиями Земля Детства и Колыбельная Земля на кладбище Forest Lawn, Glendale. Место упокоения Майкла 
Holly Terrace выходит как раз на эти места, где захоронено множество детей. Это прекрасный способ показать уважение и почтение к этим маленьким душам, чьи родители и семьи больше не посещают их. Это – единственный раз в году, когда цветы украшают их могилки, когда мы в память о Майкле, проводим это мероприятие - "Pay It Forward".
  


Sparrs Senior Center в городе Глендейл был взволнован, когда получил в подарок ведра красных роз для пожилых людей, чтобы украсить их прием пищи в кафетерии. Sparrs принимает у себя людей как старшего, так и младшего возраста, а также функционирует как общественный центр и центр исполнительских искусств: Community Center. Это сделало его идеальным местом для пожертвования наших роз в память Майкла. Множество ведер роз к нашей радости были размещены прямо в центре местной сцены, места, как известно, которое для Майкл всегда было домом родным. ♥
  


Выдержки из сообщения на  Face Book от Robyn Starkand:
"Мы в этом году платим дань любви от имени Майкла путем пожертвования роз 26 июня для менее удачливых людей, принося им радость и любовь. Также сюда включено мероприятие по доставке ведер роз на Землю Детства и Колыбельная Земля на Forest Lawn, как мы это делали в прошлом году .... Майкл снова будет улыбаться нам сверху – ведь это продолжение его послания любви ".
 Спасибо вам всем за вашу любовь и поддержку,
Робин Старканд. «Одна роза для Майкла Дж. Джексона»

♥ One Rose for Michael J. Jackson – Gib es weiter:

Wir haben auch wieder das Vorrecht, weitergeben zu dürfen. Vergangenes Jahr haben MJ-Fans Eimer voll Rosen an überraschten, obdachlosen Veteranen Frauen in einem Heim in Los Angeles überreicht. Es ist uns eine große Freude, diese herrlichen Auswirkungen unserer Liebes-Aktion teilen zu dürfen.

Als ein Ergebnis dieser Geste der Liebe fiel ein Same in das Herz einer anonymen Person, die an jenem Tag anwesend war. Sie wurde Zeugin der Freude und Dankbarkeit, die die Damen erfuhren, als sie ihre Rosen umschlossen.

Unsere einfache Geste der Freigebigkeit wuchs um ein Vielfaches weil ein anonymer Spender es auf sich nahm, weiterhin Blumen an die Veteranen Frauen zu verschenken. Im ganzen Jahr nach dem 26. Juni wurden jeden Monat Blumen geliefert dank der Großzügigkeit dieses anonymen Spenders.

Das Lächeln und die Liebe wuchs und wuchs das ganze Jahr lang mit der regelmäßigen Blumenlieferung. Was für ein unglaubliches Ding! Ich bin so stolz und dankbar, ein Teil dieses wunderbaren Ausdrucks der Liebe zu sein. Ich glaube bestimmt, dass Michael vom Himmel auf uns herab lächelt.

Vielen Dank an alle, die im letzten Jahr Rosen gekauft haben. Ihr dürft in Euren Herzen haben, dass auch ihr Anteil habt an dieser herrlichen, liebenden Geste als wir „zur Erinnerung an Michael weitergereicht“ haben.

An das ‚Baby Land’ und ‚Lullaby Land’ auf Forest Lawn, Glendale, wurden ebenfalls Blumen weitergegeben. Von Michaels Holly Terrace blickt man auf Grabstätten, in denen Babies beigesetzt wurden. Dieses ist die perfekte Art und Weise um den kleinen Seelen unseren Respekt und Ehre zu erweisen, die weder von ihren Eltern, noch von ihren Familien besucht werden. Einmal im Jahr werden diese Gräber ebenfalls mit Blumen überhäuft…zum Gedächtnis an Michael geben wir an andere weiter.

Sparrs Seniorenheim in Glendale war begeistert davon, mit Eimern voller Rosen für die Senioren beschenkt zu werden, während diese gerade ihre Mahlzeiten im Bühnenbereich der Cafeteria einnahmen. Sparrs ist ein sozialer Treffpunkt und eine Begegnungsstätte für darstellende Künste und kümmert sich sowohl um Senioren als auch um kleine Kinder. Daher war dies der perfekte Ort für unsere Rosen-Spende zum Andenken an Michael. Zu unserer großen Freude wurden die Rosen im Zentrum der Bühne hingestellt, dort wo Michael für immer hingehört. ♥

Ausschnitt aus einem Face Book post von Robyn Starkand:

„Wir werden auch dieses Jahr wieder am 26. Juni Rosen an Menschen weiterreichen, die weniger wohlhabend sind; wir möchten ihnen Freude und Liebe bringen. In diese Aktion sind auch dieses Jahr wieder das Baby Land und Lullaby Land auf Forest Lawn eingeschlossen. Michael wird sicher wieder auf uns hinablächeln weil wir seine Botschaft der Liebe weitertragen.“
Danke für all Eure Liebe und Unterstützung
One Rose for Michael J. Jackson.

Roses, Roses, 10,477 Roses 2012

                                

"To give someone a piece of your heart, is worth more than all the wealth in the world.” ~ Michael Jackson

We marched in spirit from around the world, ‘MJ’s Soldiers of LOVE’, with long stemmed roses held high for our KING OF LOVE. A figurative marching of hearts from MJ’s Army of LOVE entered Forest Lawn on June 24, 2012 to take delivery of 10,477 thornless roses from around the world. Fans from around the globe blanketed Michael Jackson with a red rose sea of LOVE. It had been a long journey many months in the making. Through the well thought out plans of Robyn Starkand and her team in conjunction with Passion Growers. No stone had been unturned.

It had all begun the first year of Michael Jackson’s death anniversary as a simple loving gesture to show Michael how much we missed and still loved him. Then as it became plagued by the selfish, greedy actions of the originator we feared our loving yearly shower of red roses over Michael’s Holly Terrace would not happen. There were problems from the inception... the originator was from Sweden and rarely communicated with those who physically made the project happen. Inaccurate lists of purchases were being posted resulting in many fans asking for corrections, little if any explanations were being given about rose stats. We attributed this to a language barrier. It was all very frustrating. Then of course the fact that from Sweden this person was ordering the flowers for somewhere she’d never been and at the last minute only days before June 25th informed Robyn the roses had not even been ordered yet and asked for her help.

My dear friend, Robyn, is a can do type person who doesn’t take no for an answer. She went into high gear, jumped on the phone to find a provider of red roses. Sadly the obvious florist choice inside Forest Lawn was out of the question price wise for what Sofie had been advertising to the fans. God only knows where she had come up with her prices. A testament to her perseverance and true grit Robyn was blessed to find Passion Growers, which turned out to be an even better choice, securing the purchase making quick work of the problem. After much back and forth with Sofie the money was transferred to Passion Growers and 3000 roses were purchased and delivered all just in the nick of time. Robyn pulled a farce out of the abyss of defeat for both MJ and the MJ fans with only a few days notice. 



Then there was the fact that Forest Lawn was not Michael Jackson fan mourner friendly in the beginning but has since warmed up to us learning we are not all crazy, demanding and fanatical. The VP sat Robyn in his office and grilled her about why there was a big truck delivering roses. She smiled and endured the questions and very bad condescending attitude, succeeded in winning him over, making a friend of sorts, improving relations with MJ fans and Forest Lawn and ultimately securing the delivery and set up of 3000 roses... but not after being told several times... you can’t put them there, move them here over and over. Finally in place... the roses were a beautiful display of LOVE for MJ.

The next year went only a little bit smoother... all the same bumps in the road... struggling with non communication from Sweden, slow turn over of funds to the provider and certain difficult personalities at the cemetery. Then in the end MJ’s rose love grew to 4500 roses delivered to Holly Terrace for Michael. Once more at the last minute Robyn was called on to pull Sofie’s One Rose for Michael out of the ‘not happening’ toilet and with hard work made it a reality.



Then in 2011... Sofie showed her true colors as to why she had been so non communicative, as to why we could never get a straight answer out of her the entire first two years of the One Rose event. She had not long after One Rose come up with a most worthy fundraiser. Vaccines for needy children around the world via UNICEF. A perfectly legitimate meaningful cause all in Michael’s name. It sounded so wonderful for Michael until she disappeared, absconding with the fans heartfelt donations of over $10,000.  I personally was horrified and shocked as I had taken it upon myself as I rarely support fundraiser projects of any kind to write a blog about the UNICEF vaccines via One Rose and advertised it worldwide with the assistance of wonderful friends. I was devastated to learn Sofie had taken the fan’s money, even more disgusted and heart broken that the children would not receive the desperately needed vaccines. The authorities were notified. They are still today looking for and investigating Sofie Strandberg. I pray that justice will be served and she will pay for this disgusting act of greed and deceit.

Knowing my friend, Robyn, as I do there was an inkling that she could not let Michael go without his Red Roses on the third anniversary. We talked and I encouraged her. After all One Rose for Michael would not have even happened the first two years if it weren’t for Robyn jumping in at the last minute bringing it all to fruition. She was the deciding factor in Michael receiving his roses and if anyone could do it and do it well it was Robyn. Soon I discovered I was right. She gathered those who were already discussing the One Rose debacle, reporting Sofie and discussed a ‘New One Rose’ and how it could be handled more transparently, above board for the fans in Michael’s memory. Just as it should have been to start with. She organized her team for Face Book, the web, Tumblr, Twitter and Ustream and went to work to make it what she knew it could be for Michael. The day we were on the phone discussing it and she said the “New” One Rose for Michael J. Jackson would go live on her birthday, March 7th, I was ecstatic, elated we would have red roses for Michael at Holly Terrace again this year. I had complete faith in my friend from the very beginning even before she told me it would go live. I was just waiting for her to speak the words. 



“It is what it is” dear Robyn would say in her New York accent. All you can do is the foot work and then let it be... we talked about this often. Knowing her though I knew she was tirelessly working and striving to make the new ‘One Rose for Michael J. Jackson’ the best it could be. No stone had been unturned. Everything was revamped in this project to ensure total assurance and confidence for the fans in their rose buying. A new Face Book group page was started allowing fans to join in from around the globe. Sarrah, her admin on the page, created an incredibly beautiful new blog/website with a rotating globe showing every fan in the world’s location as they bought their roses. Michael’s genius music could be heard 24 hours a day on this site. Each fan who bought a rose received their own personalized badge they could post on their Face Book page or keep for their files. A beautiful cascade of messages of LOVE for Michael were posted on the website as well.

There was a new name for this 2012 event ‘One Rose for Michael J. Jackson’ only a small distinction for a huge change. We had talked about the possibility that fans would not be interested in One Rose this year after the malicious actions of Sofie in the original One Rose, fearing it may haunt One Rose and destroy any possibilities of a beautiful project of LOVE for Michael. It never ceases to amaze me how low and filthy some people can be especially masquerading as ‘loving MJ fans.’ The fans including both of us were disillusioned by Sofie’s hurtful, brazen, greedy behavior. Michael lived with this type of selfish manipulative behavior his entire career and it’s disdainful to see after all he suffered that it still plagues the MJ community today. There are dirty hands and evil spirited greedy people on Face Book and MJ blogs and websites everyday collecting money in Michael’s name and lining their pockets instead of delivering the goods. Even more baffling is how people turn over their hard earned money to someone’s personal account with no real proof of where their money is going or how it is used. 

I have always made it my personal rule that I will not donate to anything unless the money goes directly to the source and I receive a receipt. Never the less I was one of the fans who donated to Sofie for the children’s vaccines. I made an exception to my rule with Sofie and will not ever make that mistake again. The new One Rose was set up so all money went directly to the rose grower. No money ever touched the fan’s hands. It had to be that way.

In support of and belief in my friend and her efforts I wrote my ‘One Rose for Michael J. Jackson 2012’ story for my Michael’s Heart blog. It felt so good to put that story out there like the Phoenix rising from the ashes. Remembering my own frustration of the previous years I made it my main objective to inform all the fans everywhere I possibly could of the rose count on a regular basis. After all it was their money, their gift to Michael and they were entitled to know the current rose count at all times. The One Rose team and supporting fans held regular twitter and Rockin’ for Roses Ustream events with effervescent Melanie from N.Y. to get the word out there that this was a brand new revamped One Rose for MJJ. Robyn created her beautiful videos which enabled us to share the event along with the One Rose for MJJ tumblr and website/blog. All bases were covered. We became like a well oiled machine.


The new One Rose stance and motto was: ♥ One Voice, One Heart, One LOVE, We are One Rose for Michael J. Jackson ♥  I remember our long phone conversations discussing the first year there had been 3000 roses and the second 4500. At launch day we then theorized if we were to even get 1500 after Sofie’s low life actions that would be 1500 roses of PURE LOVE for Michael Jackson from true MJ fans. End of discussion. We let it go, gave it to God and continued our work. 


There were those who appallingly tried to destroy the event spreading unwarranted personal attacks, lies and slander about the new One Rose for Michael J. Jackson, Passion Growers and Robyn. It horrifies, disgusts and saddens me what some will do out of jealousy and greed. There are still those today masquerading as loving Michael Jackson fans who clearly do not know one iota of what he truly was about. They infiltrate the MJ community like a cancer arrogantly and insanely spreading their twisted lies causing turmoil and hurt all out of greed and to gain personal notoriety.

Neysa, a beautiful MJ fan with a huge heart of LOVE, wrote on Face Book in the weeks prior to June 25th and expresses a vision for those of us who toiled and supported One Rose for Michael J. Jackson 2012. Those who know that real pure LOVE for MJJ. This beautiful vision is an excellent example of Michael’s true heart. Why each of us 'needed' to buy him One Red Rose.

Hi Ladies,

I just wanted to share a few words of support this afternoon.  This whole horrible experience has threatened to take away the beauty of what you've achieved.  I shared a very poignant image that I had in my mind's eye with Robyn yesterday.  That one is for her.  This one is for you as a group.  I wish I could draw or paint or something so I could  capture these images, but I can't.  So bear with me as I attempt to put into words the picture I can see.

It's night time at Forest Lawn.  The anniversary is coming to a close, and all the fans have long since gone back to their hotels, their homes, or wherever. As darkness and peaceful silence descends over the grounds, the door to Holly Terrace opens silently, and a familiar figure, not quite transparent, emerges. He pauses and looks around at all the beautiful mementos that have been left for him. What catches his eye the most are the dozens of buckets filled to overflowing with bright red roses.  Bending down, he picks one up and holds it.  He looks at it from every angle and takes in its beauty and its aroma.  The light that surrounds him like an aura illuminates one sparkly tear that has escaped his eye and is tracing its way down his cheek.  A smile forms on his lips and slowly spreads across his face.  He replaces the rose into its bucket and then puts his hands together.  Looking toward the sky, he whispers, "Thank you for bringing me out here, God.  Thank you for showing me this.  Please help the fans who put this together feel my love for them in an extra-special way.  They've blessed me beyond all measure."

He walks down among the mementos, pausing to read the cards, look at the posters, and touch the various trinkets that have been left.  All the while, he's enjoying the scent of the roses, which has permeated the night air.  This, he decides, is his new bliss.  He'd been given an opportunity to experience first-hand the love for him that his fans carry in their hearts, and he found that far from fading away, their love had instead increased!  He looks around and speaks in a whisper what he would have said if the OneRose4MJJ girls were all gathered in front of him.  "You knew, didn't you?"  He shakes his head and sighs a happy sigh.  "You knew how much this would mean to me.  You took all the love, the energy, the patience, the time, and the hope you have in your heart and you poured it into this project.  You weren't sure I'd ever know about it, though you wanted to believe that I'd see it somehow.  Well here I am.  And I want you to know it's absolutely beautiful.  YOU are absolutely beautiful.  God bless you, you've touched my heart deeply."  He paused, wishing he could then reach out and hug them.  "And one more thing.........I know what you've been through.  I can feel the pain that's still stinging in your hearts.  But ya know what?  You won.  You succeeded.  You were determined not to quit, and it paid off.  I'm proud of you."  And then he blew a kiss into the night air, brushed a happy tear from his face, and slowly made his way back to the door that led to his resting place.  But before he entered, he turned and waved one last time.

I really do believe Michael sees the flowers and mementos that are left for him at Forest Lawn.  I like to think of him coming out at night and looking at them all.  It always makes me smile.....

Be Blessed,

Neysa

From the very start I shared with Robyn almost daily as the news spread. I put my ability to reach out to the fans via my blog to work. Of course all those wonderful loving MJ websites I trust picked up the story and posted it. It went viral. I watched and followed on my blog stats as countries everywhere read the story. India, Australia, Africa, Canada, USA, South America, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland, all over Europe and Asia... every country and continent loves and misses Michael Jackson and all were joining in. People everywhere were given a chance to show Michael their LOVE with a single red rose. Each new goal we met catapulted us to a new level, setting a new higher goal... then that goal too would be surpassed. We were in awe of the LOVE. Encouraged by the out pouring of support. Taking to heart MJ’s affinity for the number 7 and with high hopes we reached even higher and set a new goal of 7,777... never dreaming we could meet it. Then astoundingly we blew right past it. There was no way to have ever anticipated or foreseen what would happen. Our humble expectations were soaring to new heights. God and Michael clearly had a different idea.

The saying goes... “We make plans while God laughs.” Michael always did everything BIG and he must have been up there hanging off a heavenly cloud dangling his loafered feet and just giggling away because nothing could stop this red rose tsunami of LOVE for MJJ... not hate... not slander... not ignorance.

LOVE took over for One Rose for Michael J. Jackson 2012. Just as it should be. Yes indeed Michael was looking down from heaven smiling... I could feel his golden smile... his sweet affirming touch... a blessing for a job well done.... the rose event closed with a  final count of 10,477 roses. The rose grower too was astounded and deeply touched by the outpouring of sweet love and beautiful comments from MJ fans from around the world. They had been told about MJ’s love of the number seven so had added 3 extra roses for us after the final count in order to ensure that there would be two sevens.

It was beyond our imagination! We could have never perceived this type of out pouring of LOVE. Yes the phoenix certainly did rise out of the ashes. One Rose for Michael J. Jackson went viral as a global movement, one voice heard around the world for Michael. Counting down One Rose at a time until the final count was 10,477 roses. Even the Jackson family and Michael’s friends commented on posts and tweets recording the final count:



Tweet from Jermaine Jackson:





Jermaine’s additional tweet: "You remind us time and time again about the global force of love from Michael's other family. Respect #MJFam"






Post from Michael Bearden, Michael’s TII music director:

I don't usually speak for MJ, and I won't now. But, I can say with full confidence that he would love this! m~

Delivery day - June 24th

On some days at Holly Terrace a palpable presence can be felt... it surrounds you like a soft cashmere cloak... a physical discernible touch. This day was one of those days for me. This beautiful summer day offered up warm, bright, blue skies over Holly Terrace while we gathered for the rose delivery.

Special preserved red roses for the One Rose set up team
Gi, Me, Robyn, Nicky, Rachael
This is always a guessing game... you just have to be ready for the truck to arrive. Robyn had her One Rose delivery team in place. Our energy and emotions were running high and the feeling in the air was unmistakable and thick. We had all five just spent the previous day flying over Neverland and wandering the streets of the Santa Ynez Valley towns talking to those who personally knew and loved Michael. Now with those stories and the amazing heli flight over Neverland fresh in our hearts our LOVE for Michael was bubbling over. We all shared the same vision. All wanted this day to go perfectly but no one more so than Robyn. There was a deep sense of peace and satisfaction yet also a high anticipation knowing we must now unpack over 10,000 roses for the King of our Hearts. Yes this would be the nuts and bolts and physical labor needed to bring this event to fruition. Forest Lawn was ready for the delivery as we stood alert, MJ’s Soldiers of LOVE at the ready to receive the shipment of the world’s One Rose LOVE for MJ. Yes we were more than ready for the task.



The Passion Growers truck appeared, opened and lifted it’s heavy back door then flat after flat was rolled off. Robyn was given the honor of opening the first box, revealing the first brilliant red Freedom Roses peeking out the top of the box, her babies, and placing the first One Rose for Michael J. Jackson bucket on the Holly Terrace patio. The first roses of 10,477. They were simply strikingly brilliant under the bright blue California sky. Everyone was wide eyed with a huge smiles. My heart skipped several beats as pure joy and LOVE welled up inside, tears filling my eyes. We all wanted to cry but then turned and looked at all the flats waiting to be unpacked and instead eagerly started grabbing box after box after box revealing more and more and more brilliant Red Rose MJ LOVE. The boxes lined the side walk and street in front of Michael’s resting place. This day, these moments in time were simply the most amazing I’ve ever been privileged to take part in for Michael Jackson. I was so honored to be there huffing and puffing and sweating my patutti off. Over two hours of work to reach the last box of red rose LOVE.

Group hug and tears. Mission complete for Michael and his loving fans!!
Finally the last bucket of red roses was put in place and we stood back simply amazed. This is when I cried... standing on the terrace as I looked at my friend, Robyn and the team of angels next to me. We spontaneously gathered for a private group hug. We stood arm in arm, bonded together, forever friends. I swallowed deep sobs of gratitude and joy as we stood encircled together, crying, holding one another in the center of Holly Terrace patio. With each sob and tear a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. My joy and gratitude for my friend, Robyn, over flowing. We had done it! It was finished! Mission complete!

Just as promised red roses blanketed Michael at Holly Terrace. A virtual sea of Regal LOVE leading up to his resting place. I personally believe Michael is in heaven in his Forever Bliss, that bliss he searched so desperately for on this earth; however this day I know he was very present with us, watching and LOVING every second of this show of LOVE. I could feel him many times, a soft, tender feeling of sweet joy and LOVE lifting us as we worked. I felt Michael in our group hug giddy with joy. Yes he was there giggling. 

We all collapsed across the street to replenish and recoup then bounced back unable to resist the roses while taking many pictures. Words are lacking to describe the floating sensation as we filled our senses with Michael’s rose love. Sitting right down amongst the roses, feeling the silkiness of their petals against our cheeks, lightly touching the soft velvety petals, smelling the sweet invigorating fragrance, feeling the coolness of the buckets of fresh, spring, rose water, our hearts and spirits swimming in an ocean of free flowing tangible MJ LOVE.

Roses so soft and sweet.

Watering... one last fill.
Robyn and me. We are glowing!

The roses, “My babies” as Robyn referred to them, had been delivered in thick cardboard boxes, each bucket filled with special temperature vitamin water to help them last for many days. However with a few slight spills we wanted to assure they were all healthy and ‘totally nourished.’ Having obtained a hose from Forest Lawn we each went about filling every bucket to the brim ensuring they would have fresh water over night and into the next day for the third anniversary day.
Michael's Sweet Kiss and Thank You!
BE God’s Glow! 

 Our job complete we stayed all day at Forest Lawn to drink in the JOY of MJ’s Roses. As we gathered across the street from Holly Terrace under the shade of the pine tree where we could take in the end result of our hard work beautiful, Rachael, from the UK was checking her pictures. She was downcast and disappointed but we were laughing as she realized someone’s bum was in one pic and again when she realized that another over zealous, loving fan jumped into the middle of another team group pic as we yelled, “Michael!” She was hoping to just get a pic of the Rose Delivery Team. Then she screamed... “Betty LOOK!! OMG!! LOOK what I have!!” She thrust her camera before my eyes. Focusing I stood astounded, no words came as I gazed at the picture of not just the One Rose Delivery team but of Michael showing his bright white glowing light right in the middle us. All I could say is, “He is here! Yes he glows! He gave us his blessing!” I remember the moment. It felt like a soft sweet kiss. We were all giving the peace sign in honor of Michael, expressing our hearts in unison yelling out loudly, “We LOVE you Michael!!” as the picture was snapped. At that very moment Michael’s bright, white light of LOVE with extending rays of white light over each one of us gave us his eternal blessing. A BIG thank you! A confirmation and affirmation substantiating our work was seen and acknowledged by the one whose approval was of the utmost importance. The ONLY one who really mattered for us. Our mission of LOVE blessed by none other than Michael himself! It took my breath away. We were floating the rest of the day. In our greatest or wildest imaginings we could never have planned for or worked for this end result. Never again could it ever be duplicated. Only Michael and God could do this.

Soon beautiful Cami arrived to take her dazzling, brilliant professional CLV photos. Many more MJ fans arrived and gazed upon the glory of the sea of MJ LOVE. We shared the glowing picture with several. They were all astounded, also blessed. No one doubted Michael’s presence and blessing. We felt both God’s and MJ’s LOVE so heavy over Forest Lawn this day and into the evening.

June 25th was a day of remembrance, meeting many beautiful MJ fans from around the world. Many more beautiful flower arrangements were added with many also taken inside. Heartfelt cards, posters, gifts and mementos were lain with LOVE all up and down the grassy area in front of the mausoleum for Michael from all over the world. There was the most glorious butterfly release of 200 Monarch butterflies which flew into the sky above the roses. This amazing show of LOVE is how I wish it could be everyday for our King of LOVE. He deserves nothing less. On the third anniversary day as MJ fans gathered I was very happy and comforted to once again spend time with so many very valued dear friends. Sweet trusted friends I know are true with huge hearts of LOVE for MJ. Also meeting new friends along the way sharing in their day as they brought their hearts of love and respect for MJ.

Much love was shown for Michael this day; however for me the most giant show of respect and honor was shown from the real stars of the day which Michael himself blessed, the brilliant red Freedom roses for Michael. Stalwart, red soldiers lining the walk way, each fan’s pure love and respect arms outstretched for their King. Enabling each MJ fan who participated world wide to not only be present in spirit but to leave a bit of their heart before their King. These brilliant roses lit up the entire area out shining everyone making a HUGE statement of LOVE to the entire world that Michael Jackson is STILL in our hearts, STILL very much LOVED and will be For All Time. A huge statement that LOVE always WINS!

MJ Rose LOVE shared - pay it forward

On June 26th as promised on the One Rose Face Book page we delivered Michael’s LOVE roses to the needy.

Lullaby Land and Baby Land: 

Our first place of delivery was right there near Michael as Forest Lawn was pleased to authorize One Rose for Michael J. Jackson’s sharing Michael’s roses with the babies. Many babies graves no longer have visitors or receive flowers as the parents have passed on. In fact Forest Lawn has asked that anytime anyone gives flowers to Michael to please also remember to give flowers to the babies. Any Forest Lawn employee can help show you the way to find these two beautiful spots. 



Michael’s Holly Terrace doors over look “Lullaby Land” which lays across the street and down the rolling green, grassy knoll at “Sunrise Slope.” A giant heart sidewalk border out lines this baby burial ground. Each visit to Holly Terrace I have viewed this place from the distance of Holly Terrace balcony. It always evoked such feelings of sadness and loss for the babies and their parents. I was not prepared for the sweet moments experienced on this day during rose delivery. Michael Kiss or MK as we all know him and he prefers to be called, a wonderful Michael Jackson impersonator and good friend, had asked if we could please distribute a few red roses to the babies for MJ. At his suggestion we were more than happy to fulfill this request in Michael’s memory. We felt that Michael would LOVE to see his red roses here more than anywhere else at Forest Lawn. 

The Forest Lawn trucks came and picked up several buckets of roses delivering them to ‘Lullaby Land’ and ‘Baby Land.’  The rose team caravaned by car to the heart burial grounds finding the most enchanting of places. Upon arrival to this wistful spot we walked the surrounding heart shaped side walk to the top of the lullaby hill. Just under the pine trees a smaller heart garden lay. Here were three full buckets of roses from Holly Terrace for the babies. This was my first time visiting the babies. I was spellbound. The smell of pine and roses greeted my senses and before me standing high under the pine trees was an enchanting, magical stone carved castle tribute so reminiscent of Neverland and Michael. I just stood there enraptured in awe at how absolutely perfect this place was to receive the charity roses from Michael Jackson. I read the carved poem to the babies completely absorbed in the white marble sculpture wall adorned with baby cherubs. I could not pull myself away. One by one we each took turns inserting single red roses into each of the carved cherub’s outstretched hands. I feel in my heart of hearts Michael would have so lovingly approved of this tribute and while I stood there turned to gaze up the hill to over looking Holly Terrace and envisioned Michael visiting, smiling, glowing, running to play with the babies.

Just a short distance down the hill and around a bend also lay ‘Baby Land’ where more buckets of roses were placed for the babies. Here Robyn and Nicky meticulously moved from row to row in search of the headstone of a baby who by chance Robyn was told about. Miraculously this baby’s name was found and one red rose was lain on his grave. This small gesture of kindness completed a life long cycle of mourning for this baby’s brother. Another miracle of the week fulfilled. After inserting two long stemmed roses into the smiling baby’s hands we all stood looking at the bronze baby statue. Michael’s presence held us there. Clearly everything was connected on this journey of giving.

Sparrs Senior Center front desk
Sparrs Senior Center:
The next stop was to take buckets of roses to the Senior Center. Originally I had planned to arrange the delivery to a Senior Center I had worked in years before near my home. Then at the last minute decided instead to reach out to find a Senior center in Glendale. Randomly calling Sparrs Senior Center they were thrilled to hear about and welcomed a Michael Jackson rose delivery. So leaving the babies behind we moved on in caravan to Sparrs in Glendale. Upon arrival we were greeted with smiles and directed by Angela to the room where we were to drop the flowers. To our amazement it was large room where the seniors gather each day for lunch and so fittingly held a stage. Yes a stage! A beautiful thick black velvet curtain lined the backdrop of a beautifully well maintained raised wood stage. We were asked to place the roses center stage. Once again Michael Jackson was fittingly center stage.


Yes indeed MJ was with us all the way. Argisht, an employee at Sparrs had heard that there were flowers from Michael’s anniversary at Forest Lawn being delivered and he had to come out to see. He had been disappointed he couldn’t visit Forest Lawn the day before and had heard about the roses on the news so he was absolutely surprised and thrilled to know the roses had come to Sparrs. Tears filled his eyes and he was very moved when he entered the room and saw the buckets on the stage marked One Rose for Michael J. Jackson. He is a huge MJ fan and like most fans he wanted to keep talking about MJ inviting us to pose for pictures and enthusiastically asking what our favorite MJ songs were. His he revealed was Dirty Diana.

Two other ladies from Sparrs chatted with us. They were all thrilled to receive roses from One Rose for MJJ for the Seniors. They were so appreciative and said the seniors were going to be so excited and happy to see them when they came in for lunch the next day. They loved hearing the story about the 10,477 roses for MJJ and said they would make sure to tell all the seniors about MJJ's roses from the fans.

Then to absolutely cement that we were in the right place sharing MJ’s rose love one of the ladies excused herself to attend to an ongoing class... but not before revealing that Sparrs was a not only a senior center but perfectly fit for our donation because it was a community performing arts center which also held children’s summer classes. It was then I realized looking out the windows from the lunch room to the patio outside a group of about 20 children attending a summer class.

Yes indeed MJ was with us... for we could not have planned this delivery of roses to a more perfect place.

So fitting... 'Don't Stop Believing'

Veteran’s Woman's Homeless Shelter - West Los Angeles:

Buckets of roses were also shared with a local Veteran’s homeless shelter bringing smiles to the faces of these lovely women. Each lady was given roses from the buckets placed into vases with fresh water so they could enjoy them in the privacy of their rooms. Still there were plenty of roses to share in common areas for everyone to enjoy including staff. God bless these veterans, these strong ladies, for fighting for their country. Roses are the very least we can do to show them our thanks and appreciation. What a privilege One Rose for MJJ received while helping to put a smile on their faces. I know Michael smiled down from heaven on this wonderful gesture of giving and love as he waved his American flag of approval from heaven’s gate.

lain at the foot of the angel for Elizabeth Taylor

Roses for Michael’s friends:

Seven roses were taken to Walt Disney who Michael highly admired and possibly had visited at Forest Lawn. They were laid in his burial garden. It was felt Michael would very much approve of this gesture of respect and LOVE.

Seven red roses were also lovingly laid at the foot of the angel statue for Elizabeth Taylor in the main Glendale mausoleum as we shared Michael’s regal, red, rose abundance of LOVE. Michael always shared with his good friend. One more time he was able to share his LOVE through One Rose for MJJ with his good friend Elizabeth.
