The Osbourne family met in a dark silence to say goodbye to Ozzy Osbourne, their heavy steps of sorrow. Sharon Osbourne, supported by his children Jack and Kelly, has made their way through a sea of mourning people, taking a moment to recognize the sincere effusion of the love of fans. This little but powerful gesture showed the deep link between the family and the people who had shared the trip of Ozzy.
The farewell testified to the immeasurable respect and admiration that the legendary singer of Black Sabbath inspired. Thousands of fans gathered in Birmingham, the city where Ozzy was born, to honor his memory in a way that words could barely capture.
The procession moved along Broad Street, a main artery in the hometown of Ozzy, ending at the Black Sabbath bridge. There, the nearby bench had become a makeshift memorial, with fans leaving flowers and touching messages in tribute. Along the way, the Bostin ‘Brass Band played a last live performance, marking the moment with a musical tribute to the extraordinary life of Ozzy and the musical heritage.
A private farewell
While the public tribute has captured the emotions of the moment, the Osbourne family should organize a private ceremony in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghashire, near their home in Welders House. This has not been officially confirmed, but the British tabloids speculated on a possible service. Sharon and his children are considering burial or cremation, with a plan to later put Ozzy’s ashes to rest in the gardens of their house – keeping his memory close in a private and significant space.
The farewell of Ozzy Osbourne was a unique mix of public celebration and intimate family moments. His heritage continues not only in the world of heavy metal, but in the hearts of millions of people who have been affected by his music and his life.
