The trio, who make up the band 3T, previously spoke out about their father’s death, expressing in a statement on their group Instagram account that they are “shocked, saddened and heartbroken.”
“Our father was an incredible man who cared about everyone and their well-being,” said the statement.” Some of you may know him as Tito Jackson from the legendary Jackson 5, some may know him as ‘Coach Tito’ or some know him as ‘Poppa T.’ Nevertheless, he will be missed tremendously. It will forever be ‘Tito Time’ for us.”
