Ozzy Osbourne's death certificate reveals incredible job title listed
Black Sabbath icon Ozzy Osbourne died aged 76 on July 22, surrounded by his wife Sharon and his children, and the rock legend's cause of his death was recently revealed Ozzy Osbourne's cause of death was recently revealed after he died aged 76 last month. The Black Sabbath icon passed away on July 22, surrounded by his wife, Sharon, and children. The musician had been battling ill-health in recent years, with him and his wife openly speaking about their health woes. The star was determined to make it to Villa Park for his final performance just days before he died. On Tuesday, it was revealed the Prince of Darkness died following an out-of- hospital cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease and Parkinson's disease with autonomic dysfunction (joint causes). Amazingly, under his occupation, he was listed as "Songwriter, Performer and Rock Legend." It comes after Sharon Osbourne broke down in tears at Ozzy's funeral in heartbreaking scenes. An acute myocardial infarction occurs when the blood flow to the heart is blocked, often by a blood clot, causing damage to the muscles of the heart. Symptoms include pain in the chest, including pressure, heaviness, tightness or squeezing, pain in other parts of the body, including the arm, jaw, neck, back and stomach, lightheadedness, sweating, shortness of breath and feeling sick. On Monday evening, his daughter Kelly, who recently got engaged at his final-ever concert, paid tribute to her late father in a sweet post shared on Instagram. The star, who featured in The Osbourne's with her parents, wrote: "I've sat down to write this a hundred times and still don't know if the words will ever feel like enough... but from the bottom of my heart, thank you. "The love, support, and beautiful messages I've received from so many of you have truly helped carry me through the hardest moment of my life. Every kind word, every shared memory, every bit of compassion has meant more than I can ever explain." She continued: "Grief is a strange thing—it sneaks up on you in waves-I will not be ok for a while-but knowing my family are not alone in our pain makes a difference. "I'm holding on tight to the love, the light, and the legacy left behind. Thank you for being there. I love you all so much." Before Ozzy's private funeral at the family's Buckinghamshire estate, the family, including Sharon, Aimee, Kelly, Jack and Ozzy's son from a previous marriage, Louis, joined fans in Birmingham to pay their respects. Broad Street, where there is a Black Sabbath bridge and bench, was adorned by flowers, with fans sobbing as Ozzy's coffin drove down the street.
