Amy Winehouse's funeral was held the day before at Edgewarbury Cemetery in north London. Family and friends came to say goodbye to the British star. Among them were the singer Kelly Osbourne (she came to the ceremony with a lush pile on her head - a kind of tribute to the diva), producer Mark Ronson and the last lover of the singer Reg Travis.
The private ceremony in accordance with Jewish rites began at 17.00 (local time). Those who were allowed by Amy's parents to be present were clutching black and white photographs of the star - an invitation-pass.
According to those present, the father of the star Mitch tried not to succumb to grief. He told interesting stories from Amy's childhood about how daredevil she was. “Not only her friends, but also family members heard a lot of funny things and just couldn't help but smile,” an eyewitness said.
“Good night, my angel,” the father said in parting. - Sleep well. Mom and Dad love you very much. Finally, all those present in chorus sang Carol King's song So Far Away - this song Amy loved very much.
Winehouse's body was cremated and buried in an urn.
We will remind, the performer of the hit Rehab was found dead on the afternoon of July 23 in her house on Camden Square in north London. After the autopsy, the cause was never established. The toxicological examination will take several weeks. The police still qualify Winehouse's death as "inexplicable", considering only as a working version of an overdose - the singer suffered from alcohol and drug addiction for many years. However, after examining the apartment, the police did not find any traces of illegal drugs.
On Monday, after the autopsy, the singer's body was handed over to her parents, since Jewish traditions require the fastest possible burial.
