Jack Osbourne has released an emotional two-and-a-half-minute video tribute titled “Some Memories Of My Father”, honoring the life and legacy of his father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away late last month at the age of 76.
Alongside the video, which premiered on YouTube, Jack included a heartfelt note expressing his grief and deep admiration for his father. He wrote:
“I haven’t really wanted to post anything since the passing of my father. My heart has hurt too much.
“I’ll keep this short because he hated long, rambling speeches.
“He was so many things to so many people, but I was lucky and blessed to be part of a very small group who got to call him ‘Dad.’
“My heart is heavy with sadness and sorrow, but also full of love and gratitude. I got 14,501 days with that man, and I know what a blessing that is.
“I think this quote best describes him: Hunter S. Thompson once said: ‘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!”
“That was my dad. He lived — and he lived fully.
“I love you Dad.”
Official Cause of Death
According to The New York Times, Ozzy Osbourne died from a heart attack. The report was based on a death certificate filed in London by his daughter, Aimée Rose Osbourne. The certificate listed his profession as “Songwriter, Performer and Rock Legend.”
The document outlines the official causes of death as:
- Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
- Acute myocardial infarction
- Coronary artery disease
- Parkinson’s disease with autonomic dysfunction
The certificate further confirmed that the heart attack occurred outside of a hospital setting.
Ozzy Osbourne, famously known as the frontman of BLACK SABBATH, touched millions with his music, energy, and unfiltered personality. As Jack shared in his moving tribute, Ozzy didn’t just live — he lived fully. His legacy as a rock icon and beloved father continues to inspire and resonate across generations.
