A funeral for Tito Jackson, a member of the Jackson 5, took place Monday at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California. Held seven weeks after his passing at age 70, the service was attended by family and close friends. Notable attendees included his siblings Marlon and La Toya Jackson and Michael Jackson's children, Paris and Bigi Jackson.

Following the main service, Tito Jackson's sons revealed on Instagram that a smaller, private family ceremony occurred shortly thereafter. That ceremony was a few miles away at Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills, where Tito was ultimately laid to rest. His death on September 15 marks the second loss among the nine Jackson siblings, following Michael Jackson's death at 50 in 2009.

Tito Jackson, the third child of Joe and Katherine Jackson, is survived by his mother, Katherine, now 94. Tito joins a list of prominent figures interred in the Glendale cemetery, where his brother Michael and father Joe Jackson are also buried, along with other notable names like Elizabeth Taylor and Walt Disney.
