I was just made aware that Peter Yarrow, the lead singer of “Peter, Paul and Mary,” just passed away in his New York City home after a four-year battle with Cancer.

I grew up hearing Peter, Paul and Mary sing their wonderful songs, it was my Grandpa who used to listen to them, though I started listening to them myself recently.

Though I never met any of the trio, they seem like wonderful people who really cared for others.

He was a wonderful person, and he will not be forgotten.
