“They're very grateful for the special family time they had together before Ozzy passed. They're planning a small, private funeral that will be a celebration of his life. Ozzy would never want a mope-fest,” the insider said.
His family is “touched by all the love and support pouring in from around the world,” which includes his wife Sharon, 72, and their kids Jack, 39, Kelly, 40, and Aimee, 41.
