Ozzy Osbourne's wife and children led his funeral procession, which traveled through his hometown of Birmingham, Britain. They were met with adoring fans and stopped to look at tributes.

Tens of thousands of people lined the streets of the central England city where Black Sabbath was formed to catch a glimpse of the heavy metal icon’s hearse.

Osbourne’s coffin, transported inside of a hearse decorated with a purple crucifix and his name in flowers, traveled down Broad Street to the Black Sabbath Bridge and bench, which have long been gathering spots for fans.
