Last week, the music world said goodbye to one of its most iconic figures. Following his death on July 22, legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne was laid to rest in a private ceremony at his sprawling 250-acre Buckinghamshire estate in the UK.
According to TMZ, newly released aerial photographs reveal Osbourne’s final resting place — a serene spot by the edge of a lake on his property, surrounded by lush greenery.
The farewell began the day before the funeral, when thousands of fans flooded the streets of Birmingham, Osbourne’s beloved hometown, to pay their respects. The late musician’s casket was driven through the city in an emotional procession, making a poignant stop at Black Sabbath Bridge. There, his family — including wife Sharon Osbourne and children Aimée, Kelly, and Jack — joined mourners in leaving flowers at a makeshift memorial for the man forever known as the Prince of Darkness.
The following day’s private funeral was attended by just 110 close friends and family members, a guest list that read like a roll call of rock royalty. Among the mourners were Robert Trujillo of Metallica, Corey Taylor of Slipknot, Rob Zombie, Zakk Wylde, and Marilyn Manson.
Earlier this week, The New York Times reported that Osbourne’s death certificate lists a heart attack as the official cause of death. It also notes his long battle with Parkinson’s disease and coronary artery disease.
In his 2010 autobiography I Am Ozzy, the metal pioneer openly described how he wanted to be remembered:
“Eventually death will come, like it comes to everyone. I’ve said to Sharon: ‘Don’t cremate me, whatever you do.’ I want to be put in the ground, in a nice garden somewhere, with a tree planted over my head. A crabapple tree, preferably, so the kids can make wine out of me and get p***ed out of their heads.”
As for his epitaph, he imagined it with his signature humor:
“Ozzy Osbourne, born 1948. Died, whenever. He bit the head off a bat.”
Now, by a quiet lake under the English sky, Ozzy Osbourne rests exactly as he wished — not in fire, but in earth, with nature as his monument, and rock history forever etched in his name.
