		<description>Dear Yoko,

I knew you would understand and thank you so much for stressing the importance of moving on with your life as it really is important. I am blessed with a family of my own now and teach them that life is precious and we can be taken from this earth in an instant, so always express love while we are here. Peace and Love to you!

Love, Debra</description>

		<description>Dear Debra, 
I understand so well what you are saying. It&#039;s very hard to lose somebody who has been so dear to you, isn&#039;t it? I still feel strange that John is not here with me physically. But it&#039;s very important that we move on.  
Have a great future! 
Love, yoko</description>

		<description>Dear Yoko,

Thank you so much for sharing this part (and many parts) of your life with all of us. That&#039;s what I love so much about you, you are a giver! The person who gave you back the lighter was also a giver. 1980 was a terrible year for me too, as I lost my mother May 23 of that year; 4 days before my 15th birthday. It was very quick and unexpected. It has been 30 years now and I can still feel her at times. I often wonder what an adult relationship would have been like with her. I&#039;m so happy you are here in this world with us, Yoko. You make it a better place.

Love,
Debra Slattery

		<description>dear yoko...so sorry for what happened to john he worked so hard to get the message out to love our brothers and sisters and i do.  I was only 11 years old when john &amp; you became one in love i always thought you were so cool to marry john and he marry you: he was my favorite &quot;beatle&quot; with his sexy voice.  now that i am 51 your art and his music mean so much more then when i was 11.by the way my mother would say back then the thoes two are crazy i like paul better... is it because paul did not show people his true feelings for fear of what people might say....the world and myself will always miss john and his work; all of our hearts broke when that dark came. thank you for keeping love alive.   love susan</description>

		<description>I can imagine this story brings light so many. We can never tell what&#039;s the meaning of some little accident in our life. Some may draw long lines to the future, some just vanishes without leaving a trace. Thanks for sharing this line.</description>

		<description>Dear Yoko: After thinking about it so much as I have, after reading &#039;The Lighter&#039;, - I truly want to say; need to say, it is written as to be visualized...I found myself feeling as if I had witnessed it all...That lighter sitting aside, through a measure of time, with it&#039;s purpose to brighten your eyes, even before you lit it&#039;s flame alive once more... So, how can I presume to know how others feel?
I died a little more than 3 years ago...The doctors told my 2 sons, there was really no hope.But the sorrows of my sons, was sufficient to call me back;to live a life of learning to love, - to show others, the veil is thin,  - between time and forever...
Dear Yoko: Thank you for being strong, and for being kind...Thank you for your story, which wouldn&#039;t leave me alone.......                                                                Love, Thomas</description>
