Ozzy Osbourne’s Sisters Share Insight Into His Final Weeks Before His Death

WEST MIDLANDS, ENGLAND, JUL 23 – Ozzy Osbourne's final concert in Birmingham raised $190 million for charity and fulfilled his last wish to perform live despite his Parkinson's diagnosis, his sisters revealed.

  • On Tuesday, July 22, rock icon Ozzy Osbourne died in Birmingham, England surrounded by family at age 76.
  • Having performed his final show on July 5, Ozzy Osbourne struggled to stand and performed seated at Villa Park in Birmingham earlier this month due to Parkinson’s disease.
  • According to Jean Powell, she received his final text while he drove down Lodge Road saying `I can’t wait to come back`, and they learned of his passing via phone call that day.
  • According to the sisters, Jean Powell said `To us, he was our brother, not a celebrity`, and she added `he was frail, but it still came as a shock` as they shared memories of their loving brother.
  • Meanwhile, Ozzy Osbourne’s final memoir, Last Rites, is set to be released posthumously later this year, and tributes have poured in from artists including Elton John, Alice Cooper and Tobias Forge.
