Sharon, who managed Ozzy’s career for decades and stood by him through health struggles and triumphs alike, was visibly moved yet remained composed as her children comforted her.

Kelly, Jack, and Aimee — who have each navigated varying degrees of public life — were photographed together with their mother, an uncommon occurrence, particularly given Aimee’s long-standing preference for privacy and distance from the rest of the family.
