00:00Ozzy Osbourne's last performance was a living wake.
00:04Son Jack tearfully remembers following his dad's death.
00:08Jack Osbourne got visibly emotional when reflecting on his father,
00:11Ozzy Osbourne's final show before the rocker's death.
00:14It was funny.
00:16Before he went on stage, I ran back into the dressing room.
00:18I just gave him a big hug.
00:20I just kissed him.
00:21I just said, just crush it.
00:23You're going to do so good.
00:24Jack, 39, recounted during an appearance on Good Morning America on Monday, October 6th.
00:30Ozzy performed his final show in his hometown of Birmingham, England on July 5th,
00:3517 days before he died later that month.
00:38The show sold more than 40,000 tickets with proceeds benefiting charities.
00:43I was crying.
00:44I was in the crowd with my brother and we both were just crying, Jack recounted.
00:48It wasn't because we were feeling sorry for him.
00:50It wasn't because we were sad for him.
00:52I think it was because we knew it was the last time.
00:56In hindsight, it kind of was a living wake if you think about it.
00:59He got to say goodbye to everyone.
01:01Jack also offered an update on his father's widow, Sharon Osbourne, saying,
01:06people have been asking me that question.
01:08I say, she's okay, but she's not okay.
01:11Ozzy's family confirmed his death on July 22nd.
01:14The musician was 76, having battled Parkinson's for years.
01:19It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have
01:22to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,
01:26Sharon said in a statement with his kids.
01:28Jack, Amy Osbourne, Kelly Osbourne, and Louis Osbourne.
01:33He was with his family and surrounded by love.
01:36We ask everyone to respect our family's privacy at this time.
01:39The crazy train artist was honored by his family and friends in a funeral procession on July 30th.
01:45His relatives attended a more intimate ceremony the following day.
01:49Grief is a strange thing.
01:51It sneaks up on you in waves.
01:53Kelly wrote in a tribute post dedicated to her father on August 4th.
01:57I'm holding on tight to the love, the light, and the legacy left behind.
