Ono says Lennon still helping fight for peace

Yoko Ono says John Lennon is still helping her in her endeavors as an artist and peace activist as she pays tribute to her late husband before what would have been his 70th birthday.

Ono visited Lennon’s childhood home and school in northern England’s Liverpool on Friday.

She was welcomed by hundreds of students at Dovedale School, before she went to the semidetached family home that Lennon shared with his aunt from 1945 to 1963.

The musician was shot outside his New York home in 1980, when he was 40 years old. He would have been 70 on Oct. 9.

Ono will travel from her home in New York to Iceland on Lennon’s birthday to light the Imagine Peace Tower, an illuminated memorial.
