Joseph "Joe" Jackson, the patriarch who launched the musical Jackson family dynasty, died Wednesday in a Las Vegas hospital, a source close to the family tells CNN.
He was 89.
Jackson was the father and at times manager to pop stars Michael and Janet Jackson, along with the sibling-singing group, The Jackson 5.
No cause of death has been released, but Jackson had reportedly been in ill health.
"I have seen more sunsets than I have left to see," read a tweet posted Sunday from Jackson's official twitter account. "The sun rises when the time comes and whether you like it or not the sun sets when the time comes."
