The Osbourne family is saying goodbye to Ozzy.
The late Black Sabbath frontman’s widow Sharon and their kids Kelly, Jack and Aimee joined thousands of fans lined up in the streets of his hometown in Birmingham, England at his funeral procession on Wednesday.
Ozzy’s son Louis, 50, whom he shared with his first wife, Thelma Riley, was also there.
The Osbournes were all dressed in black and gave the peace sign to fans as they arrived at the emotional farewell.
Sharon, 72, and her kids were in tears as they laid purple flowers at a memorial for the heavy metal icon. The memorial was also filled with notes and gifts from fans.
The former “The Talk” co-host wore a ring around her neck that appeared to be Ozzy’s wedding band.
At one point, Sharon hugged Kelly, 40, and held Jack’s hands as she broke down in front of the memorial.
Kelly also shared an emotional hug with her fiancé Sid Wilson and their 2-year-old son Sidney.
Aimee went to the farewell despite living her life out of the spotlight and refusing to appear on the family’s reality show that aired from 2002 to 2005.
Ozzy’s daughter Jessica, 45, and adopted son Elliot Kingsley, both from his first marriage, skipped the event.
The funeral procession for Ozzy has been organized by the Birmingham City Council and will go through Birmingham’s popular Broad Street.
Ozzy’s Black Sabbath bandmates, Terence “Geezer” Butler, Tony Iommi and Bill Ward, are attending the procession.
It’s been reported that several other stars will join in paying tribute to Ozzy, including Sir Elton John and singer Yungblud.
The Prince of Darkness died “surrounded by love” last Tuesday at age 76.
“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” the Osbourne family said in a statement. “He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”
Ozzy previously made his funeral wishes clear in a Dear Ozzy column for The Times of London in 2011.
“I honestly don’t care what they play at my funeral; they can put on a medley of Justin Bieber, Susan Boyle and We Are the Diddymen if it makes ’em happy,” he revealed to the outlet. “But I do want to make sure it’s a celebration, not a mope-fest.”
Ozzy added, “I’d also like some pranks: maybe the sound of knocking inside the coffin; or a video of me asking my doctor for a second opinion on his diagnosis of ‘death.’ There’ll be no harping on the bad times.”
“So to answer your question, yes, a bit of planning is the right thing to do for the family you leave behind.”
Two weeks before his death, Ozzy — who had Parkinson’s disease — performed his final show with Black Sabbath for the 42,000-person crowd at Villa Park in Birmingham.
