RIP Ozzie.
Seventy six is good going considering everything he fitted into his colourful life.

I‘m not into heavy metal rock but I found him and Sharon entertaining to watch. I remember watching “The Osbournes” at the time and being so gobsmacked at the mayhem I couldn’t stop watching.
I felt quite sad hearing he’d died, he seemed such a gentle soul despite his stage persona. RIP.
I came across this song a good while back and loved it. I’m torn between this version and the one by him and his daughter Kelly.

We have pardoned him, so he can rest in peace.....
"We at the Alamo are saddened to hear of the passing of legendary musician Ozzy Osbourne. His relationship with the Alamo was marked initially by a deeply disrespectful incident in 1982. This act profoundly and rightfully upset many who hold this site sacred.
However, redemption and reconciliation eventually became part of his history as well. In 1992, Ozzy personally apologized to then-Mayor Nelson Wolff and expressed genuine remorse for his actions.
Decades later, in 2015, he revisited the Alamo grounds to learn and appreciate the site's profound history, openly demonstrating humility and understanding. At the Alamo, we honor history in all its complexities.
Today, we acknowledge Ozzy Osbourne's journey from regret to reconciliation at the historic site, and we extend our condolences to his family, friends, and fans around the world. May he rest in peace."

What an awful mural of him - it just looks like a random bloke with long hair and bears no resemblance to him whatsoever.

I don't think Sharon will survive him by too many years.

Sadly I think you may be right. It’s often the case when a partner, especially long term, dies despite having loving support around.

I really feel for her. Her whole life was that man.
I feel for anyone who’s going through the raw emotion of the early stages of bereavement - even Sharon Osbourne. It’s clear she’s distraught at the loss of her husband.
But holy crap, Diggs, she’s no saint! ’Crap’ being the operative word here, btw, and if you ask me why I’ll tell you.
Sorry, but she’s a highly volatile and, yes, a spiteful woman.

She has talked openly about the 'crap' incident....maybe more than one. Pretty disgusting, and not the normal actions of a grown woman. I have never liked her, but that aside.
I haven't watched the funeral today, but I can imagine how heartbroken she is, so my heart goes out to her, and obviously to his whole family.

I mean, who does that?!
That, among other reasons, is why I’ve never bought into the Osbourne hype.

None of us are saints. What has that to do with losing the love of your life?

@Diggs… I’ve said I feel for her, and I really do. The raw emotion and distress etched all over her face, is something many of us recognise only too well. Also, it must have been a proud morale-boosting moment for the family to see Ozzy’s fans giving him such a fantastic send off.
But I’m sorry I can’t gush over her, because I’ve never liked what I saw of her public persona. In hindsight, though, it was wrong of me to comment in this thread. If I could have deleted my post in time, I would have.
Feel free to do that for me, if you like

We don't mod this site like that. I don't expect anyone to gush over her. I just feel sorry for her.
Poor old Ozzy
