Ward went on to share his “deepest condolences” to Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, and his six children.

“RIP,” he concluded. “Sincere regrets to all the fans. Never goodbye. Thank you forever.”

“My dear dear friend Ozzy has passed away only weeks after our show at Villa Park,” the 77-year-old wrote, referencing the band’s farewell performance earlier this month.

“I can’t really find the words, there won’t ever be another like him,” Iommi added. “Geezer, Bill and myself have lost our brother.”

In his own post, bassist Geezer Butler also highlighted their recent concert.

“Goodbye dear friend — thanks for all those years — we had some great fun,” Butler, 76, captioned his upload. “4 kids from Aston — who’d have thought, eh? So glad we got to do it one last time, back in Aston. Love you.”

Ozzy’s family members revealed his passing, “with more sadness than mere words can convey,” in a statement Tuesday.

“He was with his family and surrounded by love,” the Grammy winner’s loved ones wrote.

Ozzy was open with his fans about his health issues before his passing.

In addition to undergoing multiple surgeries after a 2019 fall in his bathroom, the songwriter was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.

“I’m not dying from Parkinson’s,” he said in his 2020 “Good Morning America” reveal. “I’ve been working with it most of my life.”
