Friends and family said goodbye to Amy Winehouse today with prayers, tears, laughter and song at a funeral ceremony in London. Kelly Osbourne and Mark Ronson were among the famous friends that joined Winehouse’s family and loved ones at London’s Edgwarebury Cemetery earlier today. Winehouse will be cremated following the service.
According to Britain’s Daily Mail, Amy’s father gave a touching eulogy at today’s ceremony.
“Mitch’s last words to Amy in his eulogy were ‘Goodnight my angel,’” Goodman said. “Sleep tight. Mummy and Daddy love you ever so much.”
Winehouse’s official cause of death will be released in October.
Although drug and alcohol abuse are being blamed for the death of Amy Winehouse, there was no sign of drugs in the London home where the British singer was found dead Saturday, according to police sources who spoke to PEOPLE magazine.
There have been speculations that the soulful singer died because of a drug and alcohol binge. The Mirror reported that a friend of the singer claimed that “[Amy] has spent the last seven days on a massive bender and people were saying she’s going to drink herself to death.”
The untimely death of singer Amy Winehouse has caused a lot of people to stop and think about their own lives. As we said earlier, it’s no secret that Amy had a very public battle with drugs and alcohol during her life. As unfortunate as this may sound, Amy isn’t the only person in the spotlight to publicly talk about her drug addiction in interviews and songs. People like Lil Wayne, Lindsay Lohan, Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown and even Souljah Boy have been noted for their drug usage during their musical and acting careers.
