Former Ozzy Osbourne Guitarist Bernie Tormé Passes Away

Bernie Tormé (ex-Ozzy Osbourne/Gillian, etc.) has sadly passed away at the age of 66. This news comes after the guitarist was hospitalized last month with pneumonia in both lungs.

Tormé’s family said the following:

“Bernie Tormé passed away peacefully on the 17th March 2019, one day short of his 67th birthday, surrounded by his family. He had been on life support for the past four weeks at a London hospital following post-flu complications. Bernie will be remembered for dedicating his life to his music for five decades. He will be sorely missed.”

Ozzy Osbourne also commented:

“What a sad day. We’ve lost another great musician. Bernie was a gentle soul with a heart of gold. He will be dearly missed. I send my sincere condolences to his family, friends and fans. Rest in Peace Bernie.”

Osbourne is currently recovering from pneumonia himself.
