Ridiculous - Paul (1942-1966) listed on Findagrave
-
James Paul McCartney, 1942-1966
I understand there's still some misguided conspiracy fans who think Paul left us in 1966, but I'm surprised findagrave.com would allow this entry to stay on their site. They must not be moderating it.
I could have just ignored this, but I don't like having this joke of an entry connected to the true gravesite information for Paul's beloved parents. It seems disrespectful to the McCartney family, especially Paul.
I've written the admins at findagrave to have this entry removed, and will see what happens.....
-
@ladyleslie Kudos to you, Leslie!
-
@njr it's so sad that something like this happens. Disrespectful to Paul and his family. Kudos to you for trying to make it right.
-
Thanks Nancy, and Purple51*! Hopefully the admins there will remove that page.
-
@ladyleslie we can only hope
-
Well, 10 days and still no response from findagrave... and the entry is still there.... sigh
Found a great video to watch that will make you laugh. "Mean Mr. Mayo," who has a channel for Beatle fans on YouTube, created a video on the PID topic where he tells it like it is. Agree with what he said 1000%. He (like many of us) has no patience for the nonsense of this conspiracy theory.
The settings on his channel won't allow any of his videos to be linked or posted to other websites, so I can't post a link here but if you go to YouTube and type in search bar "Paul is Dead my POV" the video should come up and you can watch it.
I laughed so hard when I saw the video and know other fans who are tired of the PID nonsense will enjoy it as well.

Great news!! I went to the findagrave link (from first post in this thread) and saw this:
It's ironic that on Paul's birthday his fake cemetery record has been removed!! What a great birthday present!!
Paul lives!!
-
@ladyleslie Yeay!! 🥳
-
@ladyleslie had no doubt...

I don't even watch this stuff. But here is the link if you're interested:

@oobu24 Thanks, Oobu, but the video won't show up when you post the link. He has settings on his channel that won't allow his videos to be posted on other sites. That's why I wrote what to type in the search bar on YouTube.
-
@ladyleslie I still can’t find it right now. Will try later.
-
The correct title is ‘Paul Is Dead’ 60s controversy: My POV
It’s 17+ minutes long. -
I'm just glad Paul's fake cemetery record was removed, that's the important thing! Thought it was great that the site took the fake entry down on Paul's birthday... that was a great coincidence and just removing that shows respect for him.

I know the vid won't show up here. BUT if you click on the "watch on youtube" it will take you straight to it.
-
@oobu24 Thanks! Yeah, I figured that out after clicking on it.
