Tito Jackson's family has laid the Jackson 5 singer to rest nearly two months after his death at 70.
According to People magazine, TMZ and the Daily Mail, Jackson's funeral took place Monday at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California. The cemetery is also where the Jacksons held a private funeral for younger brother Michael Jackson following his death in June 2009.
Michael Jackson's children Paris Jackson and Bigi Jackson were among those in attendance, according to photos published by the outlets. Tito Jackson's siblings La Toya Jackson and Marlon Jackson also reportedly attended the service.
USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for the Jackson family.
Tito Jackson's sons, Taj, Taryll and TJ Jackson, announced the death of their father in a Sept. 15 social media post.

"It’s with heavy hearts that we announce that our beloved father, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Tito Jackson is no longer with us," their statement read, in part. "We are shocked, saddened and heartbroken. Our father was an incredible man who cared about everyone and their well-being."
With siblings Jackie, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael Jackson, Tito became a Motown hit as one-fifth of the Jackson 5, later The Jacksons. The group's four consecutive Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles "I Want You Back," "ABC," "The Love You Save" and "I'll Be There" were part of the foundation of what became known as Jacksonmania, as the brothers crooned and danced their way into the hearts of America under the stiff management of father Joe Jackson.
What we know:Tito Jackson was hospitalized for a medical emergency prior to his death
Jackson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of the Jackson 5 in 1997 and earned three Grammy nominations throughout his career as part of the group for best R&B performance by a duo or group and best contemporary vocal performance by a duo or group.
The group released 16 studio albums, 10 as the Jackson 5 and six as The Jacksons, becoming a household name as a unit and as individuals. The Jacksons became a national sensation, a seminal boy band with chart-topping and cultural success, especially in Black homes across the country.
Jackson also embarked on a solo career, releasing albums "Tito Time" in 2016 and "Under Your Spell" in 2021. He released new music as recently as last year, joining forces with Brazilian singer Natalia Damini for their song "Attitude" and its accompanying music video.
