Question
did paul macartney attend john lennons funeral?

Answer
Hi Duane,
John was taken in a body bag from the morgue to the Frank E. Campbell Funeral Chapel at Madison and 81st Street. From there he went to Ferncliff Mortuary in Hartsdale, for cremation. Yoko Ono, who was with him when five bullets were pumped into his body, issued a statement, which stated that there would be no funeral for John. She said: "Later in the week we will set the time for silent vigil to pray for his soul. We invite you to participate wherever you are at the time." All night hundreds of mourners gathered in front of the Dakota, lighting candles, weeping and chanting Beatles songs. But no funeral was held.
