Скачать или смотреть Mourners line up to say their final respects to Aretha Franklin

Hundreds of Aretha Franklin fans slept on the sidewalk overnight outside a museum in preparation of paying their respects to the legendary singer who died from pancreatic cancer at age 76 on August 16. The Queen of Soul's body arrived at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in her Detroit, Michigan, hometown on Tuesday morning for the start of her two-day public viewing. Franklin was transported to the museum in a 1936 white LaSalle, passing by as many as 200 of her fans who had slept on the sidewalk and were already lined up to be among the first to pay their respects to the singer, the Detroit Free Press reported. While many fans hailed from Detroit, others had traveled in from all around the country for the opportunity to see Franklin while lying in state at the museum.

The Wright Museum previously hosted a similar public viewing for civil rights icon Rosa Parks after her 2005 death.
