Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all moms and wishing comfort to those of us who have lost our moms.
John Lennon struggled with his relationship and ultimate loss of his mother Julia at an early age and wrote a touching tribute to her, "Mother" that I am sharing with all.

John Lennon Quote

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace. --John Lennon


 

Missing John Lennon

It amazes me that 31 years have gone by since the senseless murder of John Lennon.  I remember exactly where I was and the horrific moment when the newscaster cut into Monday Night Football to make the announcement.  I remember walking into my office the next day, my eyes swollen from crying and talking to a co-worker who I had no idea was also a fan.  We became best friends and have remained so, John Lennon brought us together.
John Lennon was a generous, charitable man and I consider myself fortunate to have been able to see him in concert when he performed at a charity event, an experience I will never forget.
Thirty-one years later, I still miss the genius of John Lennon and wonder what would have been had he lived.

Today in BEATLES History

On June 23, 1940, in Beatles history, John Lennon's friend Stuart Sutcliffe was born and became the original bass player for the Beatles.  Sutcliffe was at times referred to as "the fifth Beatle".  He left the group to pursue a solo career in art and became engaged to photographer, Astrid Kirchherr.  Sadly, Sutcliffe died young, in 1962.

Happy Birthday to Stuart Sutcliffe.
