Some people want to remember my dad as sort of overly serious, humorless and uptight. I don’t remember him that way. In fact he wasn’t that way at all. He never stopped joking and goofing around. Just because YOU are humorless and uptight does not mean he was.

I always hear ‘don’t do this don’t do that Yoko, John would hate that.’ You know what he would hate? You speaking to my mother that way. He trusted her always when the world didn’t. I’ve never seen two people have more love and respect for each other than my parents.

Imagine yelling at Yoko Ono about what John Lennon would like or dislike when you have never met Yoko Ono or John Lennon.
