Yoko Ono has posted an emotional tribute to John Lennon on the 39th anniversary of his death.
The former Beatle was shot and killed outside his New York apartment on December 8, 1980. He was 40 years old.
Remembering her late husband, Ono called again for America to change its gun laws before describing the loss of John as a “hollowing experience.”
Ono wrote: “Dear Friends. Every day, 100 Americans are shot and killed with guns. We are turning this beautiful country into a War Zone. Together, let’s bring back America, the green land of peace.”
Ono shared a statistic that revealed over 1,400,000 people have been killed by guns in America since Lennon’s death.
Ono added: “The death of a loved one is a hollowing experience. After 39 years, Sean, Julian and I still miss him. Imagine all the people living life in peace.”
