A floral wreath reading “Ozzy f*ing Osbourne” was placed by the lake**, making mourners smile through tears.

The Coldstream Guards played Black Sabbath’s hit “Paranoid” outside Buckingham Palace in a rare and emotional tribute. On Wednesday, Sharon and her family walked behind Ozzy’s cortege in Birmingham, followed by thousands of fans. Sharon carried purple flowers wrapped in black and wore Ozzy’s ring on a chain around her neck, according to the report by The Sun.

Fans paid heartfelt tributes all across the UK

Kelly and Jack supported their mother as she laid flowers, and all were seen crying openly. Daughter Aimee and Ozzy’s son Louis, wearing a purple tie in tribute, also stood with the family. Fans shouted “Ozzy, Ozzy, Ozzy” and “We love you Sharon,” showing love and support.

Ozzy’s name was shown in purple flowers on the funeral vehicle, and a live brass band led the procession.

Fans gathered early, many showing tattoos of Ozzy, carrying hand-painted signs and dark-themed balloons, as stated by The Sun.

A condolence book was opened for fans at Aston Villa’s stadium, Villa Park, where Ozzy performed last.
