Singer Bonnie Tyler, known for "Total Eclipse of the Heart," died in Portugal on July 8 after emergency intestinal surgery and a coma. Her funeral procession drew crowds in Wales on Saturday. The hearse, draped in the Welsh flag, passed through Mumbles as fans applauded, sang her hit, and threw flowers. A public service will be held Monday at Swansea Minster, followed by a private family ceremony. Born Gaynor Hopkins, Tyler is survived by her husband Robert Sullivan. Fans are encouraged to donate to two charities she supported instead of sending flowers.
