ph, which John gave him and Yoko even took a picture for him of the two together. After their 5 hour recording session, Yoko and John began to walk home and at 10:59 pm he was shot 5 times in the back by a lunatic named Mark David Chapman. John's last words were "I'm shot, I'm shot" the police were there in two minutes and the ambulance shortly after that.

He loved life and the world and fought for those who suffered under injustice and for peace. His prescience in this world is something that will forever be missed. It is hoped by myself, that his words will never be forgotten and will inspire us all as people to join together and strive for peace and love for every person, no matter their race, creed or color. Those aspects of people are arbitrary, what really matters is the spirit of the person and because of that fact, John Lennon will live forever."We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep on watering it. You've got to really look...
