According to the reports by various sources, the 46 year old Lucy Vodden is said to have passed away on Monday.

He had reached out with sympathy and concern to his childhood classmate in the remaining few days of Lucy’s life. Julian Lennon has reportedly expressed shock at the news of Lucy’s death.

The question had always perplexed many, until it had been revealed that it had been a drawing by a young Julian, of his childhood classmate Lucy, that had spinned the creative wheels of John Lennon’s head. Julian had rushed home and showed his talented father the painting of Lucy, which he had called “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds” and thus, the overwhelmingly famous song based on the LSD usage, was born.
