After suffering a massive stroke in January that left him in a coma for weeks, beloved rock media personality Matt Pinfield is steadily recovering — and recently helped induct Green Day into the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
In a heartfelt Instagram post shared yesterday, May 07th, Pinfield revealed he received an unexpected and touching gift from none other than Ozzy Osbourne. The 76-year-old Prince of Darkness, who has battled serious health issues of his own in recent years, surprised Pinfield with one of his custom engraved canes.
“Once in a while an act of kindness and friendship can make your day (or your year!). When I got this beautiful surprise gift from one of my rock ‘n roll heroes, I was completely blown away!!! The one and only Ozzy Osbourne, who I discovered at 9 years old with the Black Sabbath album, Paranoid, sent me one of his own personal engraved custom canes. I was absolutely floored when it appeared because I learned Ozzy handpicked it out from his personal collection. Couldn’t think of a more thoughtful gift for a man who loves rock and roll, and is recovering from a life threatening experience! Thank you Ozzy, Sharon, Michael G, and Keith!! I love you all!!!!”
