I will be acknowledging the passing of Michael Jackson in an upcoming installment of my column “Strictly Observing.“  I read in The Roanoke Times that he performed in Roanoke with the Jacksons in 1979, a time when some of his best work was introduced.  I was curious if anyone from Wythe County or surrounding areas saw this concert and would consent to an interview for my column.  If so, please let me know.  You can e-mail me at and I am most appreciative of any help that can be offered.

Well make sure you mention about those Children he was reported to have molested.and as told to me the other day he will not molest anymore.But I am still waiting for him to rise.so maybe he will.acknowledge that
