This is a very sad day for us Beatle girls fans,
Cynthia passed away today (April 1st), after a short battle with cancer.
She was 75. Julian was at her side. 

Here is the official statement : "Cynthia Lennon passed away today at her home in Mallorca, Spain following a short but brave battle with cancer. Her son Julian Lennon was at her bedside throughout. The family are thankful for your prayers. Please respect their privacy at this difficult time".

Julian posted this video tribute :

I'm really speechless. I never thought she would leave us so soon... May she rest in peace, beautiful soul. She's with her husband Noel now, her friend Mo, and with John... 

Other videos, these are rather rare : first one is Maureen & Ringo in Ziggy Stardust (with David Bowie), second one is Ringo & Maureen presenting Zak to the press, Maureen in the Let It Be movie, The Beatles & Cynthia leaving for the USA and last one is The Beatles & their wives at Brian Epstein's farewell.Most videos are from BeatleWives (youtube account), thank you !

 I know there are not a lot of Yoko pictures here so here are some for you :)

 Photos of John Lennon : The Life & Legend, The Sunday Times, A Special Tribute 1980 (My dad's copy). There aren't so much pictures of the girls, but I thought you guys would enjoy it anyway !! Mark Chapman, John's killer is on the second picture...

December 30th

MARY MAUREEN COX STARKEY TIGRETT, KNOWN AS MO OR MITCH

August 4th 1946 - December 30th 1994

Maureen would be 64 years old today, just like Marianne Faithfull who celebrated her birthday yesterday (Happy Birthday Marianne !). God chose to take away her life at age 48. Maureen died of leukemia, despite a bone marrow transplant from her eldest, drummer Zak Starkey (b.1965). Maureen had a lot of joys in her life : her times at the Cavern, vacationing in the Caribbeans and all over the world, marrying Ringo, the birth of her children, her times at Sunny Heights, Montagu Square & Roundhill, family fun, the concerts, the events, the premieres, etc. but also some pain : the divorce, the cheating, the disease, etc. Maureen was a devoted wife, lover, mother & grandmother. She enjoyed life to the fullest. Even fans knew how special she was, saying if Ringo wants to go with her, then fine with me cause she seems like a sweet girl. Maureen would have gone a long way to keep her man & she even tried, stating she didn't want a divorce. In my opinion, Richard was the love of Maureen's life, while Isaac was more like a father, doting and caring.

She will be greatly miss and let's take this day to remember her.

Have a nice 2011 everybody !!
