The 10 a.m. homegoing service features special musical tributes from Grammy Award-winning artists Regina Belle and BeBe Winans, along with Grammy-nominated recording artist Ruben Studdard.

The service is private and reserved for family and invited guests, but the family set up a public livestream for fans to watch.

The family is asking that, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations be made to the Mr. Robert “Peabo” Bryson Student Scholarship Endowment Fund at Morris Brown College or Antioch Urban Ministries.

“The family remains deeply comforted by the many stories shared from those whose lives were impacted by his artistry, kindness, and generosity,” an official family representative wrote in a statement. “They, respectfully, ask for continued privacy as they gather to honor, celebrate and remember him.”
