#NewsBytesExplainer: Heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne's death and burial
Ozzy Osbourne, the iconic rock star, passed away on July 22, 2023, at age 76. According to his death certificate, the causes were cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, and Parkinson's.
His daughter Aimee described him as a "songwriter, performer and rock legend"—a title that truly fits.
His burial, public procession, and celebrity attendees
Ozzy was laid to rest on July 31 at his Buckinghamshire estate in a private ceremony with family and music legends like Marilyn Manson and James Hetfield.
Before that, thousands of fans joined a public procession in Birmingham.
In true Ozzy style, the event focused on celebrating his larger-than-life legacy in heavy metal rather than mourning.
