I am deeply saddened by this news.
If there ever someone could be called the "5th Beatle", it was Neil.
He did an excellent job of protecting and safeguarding The Beatles'
legacy. His unending loyalty was greatly appreciated.
My fondest memory of him is that brief moment in "A Hard Day's Night",
in the "Can't Buy Me Love" scene, running around with a jacket over
his head, substituting for Lennon for that take.
"5th Beatle" indeed.
He will truly be missed.
