Ozzy’s daughter Kelly Osbourne, 40, also appeared to rock a piece of his apparel. She attended the procession wearing a pair of purple-tinted circular sunglasses, similar to the Black Sabbath vocalist’s signature style.
Fans lined the streets for the procession that took place in Ozzy’s hometown. The late rocker’s family visited Broad Street, where the Black Sabbath bridge and bench have become a public memorial to the “Crazy Train” singer.
The procession also featured a live brass band performance by local musicians Bostin’ Brass, who performed “Iron Man.”
