Song by Michael Jackson and The Jacksons ‧ 1973
No matter where AJ went or who he was with, he became a “dancin, dancin, dancin machine.” He loved to dance. AJ was automatic and systematic, full of color and self-contained. We will remember him as captivating and stimulating, rhythmic, and acrobatic. – Grandma Rose




Gone Too Soon, Song by Michael Jackson ‧ 1991
AJ had a vibrant spirit that resonated with everyone he interacted with, whether it was through his love of dancing, singing, anime, or simply sharing a radiant smile that would make Michael Strahan jealous. We all know that he had an affinity for Michael Jackson, and as such, he aptly moonwalked his way through life’s highs and lows, and always managed to find the silver lining. His physical presence will be missed dearly, but his spirit will continue to resonate with us all for the remainder of our lifetime.-Derek and Uncle Steve
