The family invited fans of the late soul and R&B singer/songwriter to watch online so as to not gather a crowd in the church where the service took place.

Wright died May 10 at age 66 after battling cancer. Born and raised in Liberty City, she toured with James Brown and Bob Marley, among many others, and she established herself as a mentor to many names in the music industry today.
