Fellow GenXer. Losing Ozzy feels unreal! He was such an important part of my life. 💔

It's so surreal to think of the future without Ozzy. He touched so many people. Stay strong, fellow GenXer! Thanks for reading.

Very relatable! Saw Ozzy hanging at the Rainbow a few times early 90’s.

It really is like losing a friend -The albums have been our confidants, comforts, a reliable source we can count on to feel something!

So true! They often put the comfort and answers we needed right in the songs. I was listening to "I Don't Know" yesterday and it was like, heck yes Uncle Ozzy, I needed to hear this:

"Nobody ever told me, I found out for myself

You gotta believe in foolish miracles

It's not how you play the game, it's if you win or lose

You can choose, don't confuse

Win or lose, it's up to you...it's up to you"
