Michael Jackson is going to Neverland. Well, his body, at least. CNN.com is reporting that there will be a public viewing of Michael Jackson's body at his Neverland Ranch. According to CNN.com, his body will arrive at Neverland on Thursday.

At the time of his death, Jackson's financial problems had forced him to put Neverland Ranch up for sale. Although the property had gone into foreclosure in 2007, the foreclosure auction scheduled in 2008 was canceled once an investment company purchased the loan and enabled MJ to keep a portion. Though he was renting a mansion in Holmby Hills when he died, Michael still owned a part of Neverland. The ranch, located in Santa Barbara, was named after a fantasy island in one of Michael's favorite stories, Peter Pan. Michael opened it in 1988 as an amusement park and zoo. It also served as Michael's primary residence for many years.

Jackson's private memorial service is actually scheduled for Sunday. There will also be another public memorial service in Michael's hometown of Gary, Indiana on July 10.

In other MJ news, a will that Michael wrote back in 2002 has surfaced. Currently, Michael's mom, Katherine Jackson has been appointed executor of her's son's estate as well as temporary guardian of his kids. Check back with BET.com for more on this developing story.
