Tens of thousands of fans flooded Broad Street, Birmingham, on July 30 to pay their final respects to heavy metal music legend, Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away on July 22 at the age of 76.
The emotional procession, organized and funded by the Osbourne family themselves, began promptly at 1 PM.
The late singer’s coffin, carried in a hearse adorned with purple flowers arranged to spell “Ozzy,” made a stop at Black Sabbath Bridge, a location that has become a tribute site for fans since news of his death spread.
Ozzy took his final breath just 17 days after his last performance at the “Back to the Beginning” concert on July 5 at Villa Park, Birmingham.
His wife, Sharon Osbourne, along with other family members, was seen holding a pink rose wrapped in black and purple fabric, symbolizing grief and respect. – BOOM!
