An auction by Christie's of nearly 350 personal items from Mr. Brown's estate, originally scheduled for Thursday, is up in the air, the victim of an escalating war between the soul singer's feuding heirs.

His body needs to be exhumed because I doubt if he's still there. Based on the antics of his family and trustees, he's rolled over so many times he broke thru the coffin and he's gone. Continue to try and rest in peace Godfather. Wherever you are....
