"Somebody threw a bat. I just thought it was a rubber bat. And I picked it up and put it in my mouth. I bit into it," he wrote in his 2010 autobiography I Am Ozzy.

"Louis's tie, Aimee's brooch, Sharon's necklace," penned one fan on social media.

"These little details are beautiful. As much as he meant to all of us..."
