Betty Wright was laid to rest over the weekend in her hometown of Miami, Florida.
The attendees who included close friends and family, all wore masks while the pallbearers wore black masks with Wright’s picture on them with “The Life Of A Legend” emblazoned on them.
Congresswoman Frederica Wilson attended and read a proclamation at the homegoing and 2 Live Crew member and fellow Miami native Luke “Uncle Luke” Campbell read Wright’s eulogy.
“We adored and cherished our mother; we realized early that she was a blessing to all,” her daughter wrote in Wright’s obituary according to the Miami Herald.
Wright began singing at a young age in her family’s gospel group, Echoes of Joy.
