Yesterday marked the 39th anniversary of the murder of John Lennon, celebrated member of the Beatles, activist, musician, and all-around pretty all right Brit. While John’s wife, Yoko, usually makes note of his birthday, their son Sean chose to share a photo marking the day of his dad’s death.

In a photo that Sean left captionless, his 5-year-old self is seen smiling with both his parents, who are equally thrilled. John wears a bright blue hat and a patchwork shirt and leans in toward his wife and son. John Lennon’s fans were thrilled to see a photo of their favorite Beatle as he should be remembered: glowing with happiness and light.

Several celebrities also left comments on the photo, including Lindsay Lohan, Mark Ronson, and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard. Last year Sean shared a photo of himself and his dad celebrating their joint birthday — October 9 — together. Each year on the anniversary of his death, fans around the world continue to collectively celebrate and grieve the life of the singer.
