Metallica’s
Robert
Trujillo,
who
played
bass
for
Ozzy
in
the ’90s,
wrote
in

social
media
post
the
day
prior
that
he
would
be
at
the
funeral
as
well,
so
we’ll
update
this
post
as
more
reports
of
attendees
come

Slipknot’s
Sid
Wilson,
who’s
now
engaged
to
Kelly
Osbourne,
was
seen
in
the
livestream
for
the
procession
as
well.
“Ozzy’s
service
was
a
beautiful
tribute.
As
well
as
tears,
there
was
laughter,”
a
family
friend
told The
Sun.
There
were
about
110
people
in
attendance.
“Today
we
laid
to
rest
a
beloved
friend.
I
am
eternally
grateful
that
you
let
me
into
your
life
Ozzy.
Your
inspiration
and
love
will
always
be
with
me.
Thank
you
Sharon
and
family
for
a
reverent,
beautiful
ceremony.
Your
legacy
lives
on,”
Manson
wrote
in
a
post
on
X
after
the
ceremony.
Where
Was
the
Funeral
Service?
The
service
took
place
at
Ozzy
and
Sharon‘s
home
in Buckinghamshire,
England.
Tents
were
set
up
around
their
property,
as
well
as
a
stage
for
guests
to
pay
tribute.
“Everyone
at
the
service
just
wanted
to
support
Sharon
and
the
kids,
it
has
been
an
awful
time,”
another
friend
of
the
family
told The
Sun. “Toasts
were
raised,
memories
were
shared
—
it
was
a
very
fitting
goodbye.”
Where
Was
Ozzy
Buried?
Ozzy
was
buried
next
to
a
lake
on
their
Buckinghamshire
property,
which
was
decorated
with
a
wreath
that
reads “Ozzy
Fucking
Osbourne”
and
a
floral
arrangement
that
spells “Ozzy.”
“Ozzy
wanted
his
final
place
of
rest
to
be
at
home
and
he
is
buried
at
a
beautiful
point
on
the
lake,”
the
friend
added.
