That’s life, unfortunately, you just move on.”Jack replied, “I think part of that, though, is just how deeply affected by dad’s passing people are. I’ve seen messages where people are like, ‘I never thought I would feel this way about someone I didn’t know dying.’ I think people are genuinely feeling this void and they’re just like, ‘Holy shit, this guy’s gone.'”Please do not mail your toenails and/or blood to celebritiesFinally, Sharon compared Ozzy to another beloved celebrity whose death had a massive impact on culture. “It’s very much like Robin Williams, because people adored him,” she said. “You didn’t have to like his movies or whatever; he was one of these people you just warmed to. And your dad was the same.”“Robin was very much like your dad, where he didn’t care who you were,” she continued. “Didn’t care! He’d come talk to you, give you a hug, just a great guy with no pretences, genuine. And dad was one of those charismatic people that people were just drawn to.”Ozzy Osbourne passed away on Tuesday, July 22. He was 76.
