Ozzy attended Ginghamsburg Church.  He volunteered with GIVE and liked to share his faith and his Lord.  Ozzy loved swimming at the YMCA, working on small engine repairs, fishing, golfing, biking, traveling and Put-In-Bay.  He worked for Paul Sherry Auto Group for 30 years, then for Rick James Chevrolet and Arbogast Auto Sales.  Ozzy also drove semi for Piqua Transfer, B & D, Enterprise and was an Uber driver.  He was known for his “Ozzy-isms” “If there’s a communication problem, no one told me about it” or “How’s your face feel? It’s killing me.”
