George Michael's family is asking the late singer's fans to remove flowers, photos, and other tributes left near his former homes in England.

The gay pop icon died Christmas Day 2016 at 53 from dilated cardiomyopathy with myocarditis and fatty liver, according to the coroner's report.

Bouquets, candles, flags, and handwritten messages are still regularly left by fans outside Michael's residences in Goring-on-Thames, where Michael died, and Highgate.

Referring to the singer by his nickname, "Yog," family members posted a note on Michael's website this week telling his loyal fans it was finally time to remove and discontinue these tributes out of respect for the neighbors.

"Yog liked his privacy, his homes were true havens for him," the post continues, "and, ultimately, long term, we know he would not want to disturb or change the quiet neighbourhoods he so loved, for the people in the local area, who honestly, despite reports otherwise have been gracious and very understanding."

The family suggests people pay tribute to Michael's memory by volunteering, doing "random acts of kindness," or donating to one of his favorite charities. Fans are asked to collect the tributes by May 27, “leaving any you wish us to have.”

Born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou in north London, Michael had his first success as half of the pop duo Wham! in the early ’80s. He then became one of the most successful solo artists of all time, selling more than 100 million records.
