Keith Richards attended his mother's funeral on Tuesday.
The Rolling Stones guitarist said his final goodbye to his mother Doris Richards - who died at age 91 on April 21 - at Sussex's Chichester crematorium.
Keith, who kept a bedside vigil until his beloved mom lost her battle with cancer last month, was comforted by family and fellow bandmate Ronnie Wood during the service.
Doris separated from Keith's father Bert - who passed away in 2002 aged 84 - in 1962. Before her death she had been living with the rocker's stepfather William in Kent.
Doris fell ill around the same time Keith, 63, underwent brain surgery after falling out of a tree in Fiji last year.
Doris was responsible for buying her son his first guitar on his 15th birthday, setting him on the path to rock 'n' roll success. Her father, Gus Dupree, toured the U.K. as a jazz musician and gave grandson Keith his earliest guitar lessons.
