Ozzy Osbourne Steps In to Help Texas Flood Victims, Covers Funeral Costs and Builds Shelter
In a remarkable display of compassion, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne has stepped forward to support the victims of the devastating flash floods that recently swept through parts of Texas. As families grapple with the heartbreaking aftermath of the disaster, Osbourne has pledged to cover funeral expenses and provide financial compensation to those who lost loved ones in the tragedy. His actions have brought a sense of relief and hope to a community struggling to rebuild.
