Eddie Hayes, 19, travelled from Newcastle for the event. “People like Ozzy will never be around again,” he said. “He’s purely an individual. No-one like him, no-one will ever be like him music-wise and personality-wise.
“I’ve travelled three or four hours, but it’s all worth it just for those five minutes.”
Another fan, Will Brain, 27, from Worcester, said the procession was “quite poetic”.
“It shows how many people loved him and how many lives he touched with his music,” he said.
“It was really emotional. Seeing the family and seeing Sharon and how upset they were, that was quite hard to see.”
