Jack Osbourne Shares Heartbreaking Farewell Message to Dad Ozzy Osbourne: ‘My Heart Is Full of So Much Sadness'
A week after heavy metal icon Ozzy Osbourne was laid to rest, the singer's son Jack Osbourne has shared the grief, heartache and beautiful memories he'll keep of his famous father in a touching Instagram post. 'I haven't really wanted to post anything since the passing of my father. My heart has hurt too much. I'm gonna keep this short because he certainly hated long rambling speeches,' wrote Jack, 39, one of three children Ozzy shared with wife/manager Sharon Osbourne. 'He was so many things to so many people, but I was so lucky and blessed to be apart of a very small group that got to call him 'Dad.''

The images were cued to Ozzy's sentimental Beatles-esque ballad 'So Tired' from 1983's Bark at the Moon solo album. 'Time has come to say goodbye/ I know it's gonna make you cry/ But you belong to another, my love/And half a love that just ain't enough/ I am so tired (so tired)/ And I just can't wait around for you,' Ozzy sings over weepy strings on the tune. Osbourne died at 76 on July 22 from cardiac arrest and coronary artery disease that contribute to a heart attack. 'My heart is full of so much sadness and sorrow, but also so much love and gratitude. I got 14,501 days with that man and I know that is such a blessing,' Jack wrote before offering up a famous quote from late gonzo writer and hell-raiser Hunter S. Thompson from his book The Proud Highway: The Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967 about living big and leaving behind a well-worn corpse: 'Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body… but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a ride!'' The clip ends with a series of photos of Ozzy smiling with his children and laughing and pulling faces with his grandchildren, as well as archival footage of him teaching a young Jack how to properly bow and say goodnight to an audience after a show. In addition to pics of Jack and his brood at Osbourne's final show, the July 5 all-star Back to the Beginning gig in the rocker's home town of Birmingham, England, Jack included the NSFW flower arrangement that was set up on Ozzy's estate for his private funeral last week that read: Ozzy F–king Osbourne. 'That was my dad. He lived and he lived his life fully,' Jack wrote. 'I love you dad.' Jack's tribute cam just days after his sister, Kelly Osbourne, thanked fans for holding her up during this hard time. 'I've sat down to write this a hundred times and still don't know if the words will ever feel like enough … but from the bottom of my heart, thank you,' Kelly wrote. 'The love, support and beautiful messages I've received from so many of you have truly helped carry me through the hardest moment of my life. Every kind word, every shared memory, every bit of compassion has meant more than I can ever explain… I will not be OK for a while — but knowing my family are not alone in our pain makes a difference. I'm holding on tight to the love, the light and the legacy left behind.' Watch Jack's video here.

Jack Osbourne expresses 'sorrow and gratitude' after death of father Ozzy The Black Sabbath frontman, who had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019, died aged 76 on July 22 from a reported heart attack. (Image: PA Archive/PA Images) Jack Osbourne has paid tribute to his father, Ozzy, and said his heart is filled with "love and gratitude" as well as "sadness and sorrow" following the rock star's death. The Black Sabbath frontman, who had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019, died aged 76 on July 22 from a reported heart attack. Osbourne, his mother Sharon and siblings Aimee and Kelly, joined fans in laying flowers at the Black Sabbath bench in his home city of Birmingham last week. In an Instagram post, Osbourne said: "I haven't really wanted to post anything since the passing of my father. My heart has hurt too much. "I'm gonna keep this short because he certainly hated long rambling speeches. He was so many things to so many people, but I was so lucky and blessed to be apart of a very small group that got to call him 'Dad'. "My heart is full of so much sadness and sorrow, but also so much love and gratitude. I got 14,501 days with that man and I know that is such a blessing." Osbourne said a quote from US journalist and author Hunter S Thompson summed up his father, who "lived his life fully". He wrote: "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body... but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a ride!'." His message was accompanied by a video that featured Ozzy's song So Tired, and showed pictures and videos of the father and son with members of their family. On Tuesday, Birmingham Museum And Art Gallery announced it would be extending its Ozzy Osbourne exhibition to the end of 2025 due to public demand. Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero, which was originally due to end on September 28, was opened by former X Factor judge Sharon on June 25 to coincide with the band's July 5 homecoming farewell concert at Villa Park. The free exhibition showcases Ozzy's honours including Grammys, MTV Awards and Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame accolades. Birmingham City Council began gathering up tributes left at the Black Sabbath bench on Monday, which will be stored and then handed over to the Osbourne family. The family viewed the tributes last Wednesday during a procession in which the heavy metal star's body was carried through his home city a final time. Kelly Osbourne thanked fans for their support in a social media post and said the beautiful messages she received "have truly helped carry me through the hardest moment of my life". The siblings featured in the 2000s MTV reality show The Osbournes that shone a spotlight on the family's domestic life, although their older sister Aimee opted not to take part. Ozzy died just over two weeks after Black Sabbath were reunited barely two miles from where they first played together more than 50 years ago. The Back to the Beginning benefit concert saw performances from the likes of Anthrax, Metallica, Yungblud and Guns N' Roses.

The group who formed in 1968 and were known for songs including War Pigs and Paranoid, were given the freedom of the city of Birmingham in June, which recognises people's exceptional service to the city.
