After the show took place, Jack recalled the night before he flew back to Los Angeles.

As he helped his father prepare for bed, Jack said that Ozzy looked at himself in the mirror, and said, “I think I’m going to cut my hair off.”

When Jack asked why, Ozzy answered, “I’ve retired. I’m not a rock star anymore.”

In hindsight, Jack now realizes that Ozzy “was done. He was okay with his journey.”

Jack went on to say that he finds some peace in his dad’s words.

“I think we do have a choice to a degree,” he explained. “If you’re sick, if your body’s primed and in a place, where it’s like, ‘Hey, you’ve got a choice here,’ on a deep spiritual level, I do think that maybe rather consciously or subconsciously, you have a choice where you’re like, ‘Okay, I’m ready to move on.’”

Despite this and Ozzy‘s health woes, Jack said that his father’s passing was still a “surprise” for their family.

It was a surprise for sure,” Jack said. “Obviously everyone knew he was sick… but we weren’t expecting it to be as quick as it was.”

Jack also said that the day Ozzy passed began like any other.

“He was up, he was doing his thing, had some breakfast, and that was it,” Jack shared.
