Jennifer Hudson said a heartfelt goodbye to her family members at a two-hour wake yesterday.

The Oscar winning actress remained composed as she passed the coffins of her brother Jason Hudson, nephew Julian King and her mother Darnell Donnerson.

During the funeral service, American Idol 3 winner Fantasia Barrino sang a gospel classic Your Grace and Mercy.

"I think it healed Jennifer's soul just then," said family friend, Lisa Allison.

After the funeral, a horse-drawn carriage led the procession to the cemetery.
