At dozens of emotional stops during Ozzy Osbourne’s funeral procession through his beloved hometown of Birmingham, Sharon Osbourne, visibly overcome with grief, held hands with her children—Jack, Kelly, and Aimee—as they walked past throngs of cheering fans chanting “Ozzy, Ozzy, Ozzy.” The procession paused at the Black Sabbath Bridge, where the family placed pink roses tied in Black Sabbath’s purple and black colors on a memorial topped with hundreds of floral tributes. Sharon tenderly kissed her flower before laying it among the thousands of messages left by fans . She wiped away tears as she was supported by Jack and Kelly, who escorted her from the hearse and stood by her side at the memorial bench .
Thousands of fans gathered to honor OZ as his Jaguar hearse and family motorcade traveled along Broad Street, passing his childhood home in Lodge Road, Aston. Amid powerful brass band renditions of Black Sabbath’s classics, the crowd showered his cortege with flowers and displayed heartfelt signs. The family later proceeded to a private funeral service in Buckinghamshire, as Ozzy’s legacy as Birmingham’s "Prince of Darkness" reverberated beyond his final journey home .
