Ozzy Osbourne's family accompanied the coffin of the rock legend in an emotional last trip through his hometown, accompanied by thousands of fans who came to say goodbye to his idol.
Sharon Osbourne, in tears, added a rose rose to the thousands of flowers and other objects left by fans in Birmingham, while his relatives comforted her, including her children Kelly and Jack.
The crowd made the atmosphere vibrate with its farewell, respectful and strident at the same time, when chanting: “Ozzy! Ozzy! Ozzy!”
The funeral procession was headed by a music band that performed Black Sabbath songs, and Ozzy's coffin was transported in a funeral car crowned by a purple floral tribute in cross -shaped.

The procession took place a week after the death of Ozzy at age 76, and less than a month after its triumphant farewell concert against 40,000 fans at the Villa Park football stadium.
On Wednesday, the funeral procession passed through the stadium and the house where the rocker grew before heading to the center of Birmingham, where fans, with Ozzy and Black Sabbath t -shirts and scarves, congregated. Some threw flowers, and among the crowd they burst songs and spontaneous songs.

When Sharon left the car in which they transported her, she was accompanied, both physically and morally by Kelly and Jack, while she deposited her rose on a sea of flowers. Kelly and Jack also deposited Flores, as well as his sister Aimee and Louis, Ozzy's son of his first marriage.
They were accompanied by other relatives, including their grandchildren and Kelly's fiance, the Slipknot DJ, Sid Wilson.
The relatives hugged while they took five minutes to observe the tributes and to contemplate the crowd.
The fans shouted their support with shouts of “We love you, Ozzy!”, “Ozzy forever!” And “Sharon, we love you!”
Sharon greeted fans raising their arms and making peace signs before going back to a vehicle and the courtship continued its passage between the mourners.
