Sam Mtukudzi and Owen Chimhare who died in a car crash on Monday morning (15 March 2010), were laid to rest at Warren Hills Cemetery in Harare this afternoon.

Speaking at a service held earlier in the day, Sam’s mother said that she had been robbed of two sons. Her husband, music superstar Oliver Mtukudzi said that Sam and Owen were great children and never gave their parents too many headaches.

Many of those present, including some of the artists that Sam had worked with, broke down intermittently during the service and wept for their friend departed.
