    I met Paul and Linda when I was 13 years old. At 9000 Sunset Billboard Magazine, through my uncle Peter Heine director of advertising. I was alone with Linda and Paul for about 15 minutes. During which time we visited and looked out the window at the LA skyline. They were both very polite and kind to me. They treated me like a grown up. I felt like they were friends of the family. Nice people.

    Linda McCartney was one of the nicest people I ever met. She was a genuine and unspoilt person with a deep passion for all she cared about and humility and kindness for everyone. I met her a few times and she never forgot my name even though I'm no celebrity or anyone important!

    It is sad to hear all the negative comments on here about the lack of Linda's talents and even the perceived personalities of Paul's daughters. I know that I am old and totally "uncool" but as an American Beatles fan from the time I first saw them on the Ed Sullivan show, and a particular fan of Paul McCartney, I just have to disagree. I remember Paul's reputation as a "lady's man" very well and even remember them having problems in Minnesota when Paul was found with a young girl in his motel room. Linda was also well known in the rock circles, both as a young photographer with a rich father and a "groupie". But when the two of them met, whatever talents Linda had, she obviously had the talent to be woman enough to make Paul McCartney a happy man, seeing him through the hardest times of his life with the break up of the Beatles and deaths in his family. She was a stabilizing female force in his life when the only female force in his life he respected (his mother) had passed away. She gave him a beautiful family, and together, along with her own daughter, who Paul adopted, they remained together until Linda died. Their love for one another went unquestioned. There were never any "cheating" rumors or "break up" rumors in the tabloids like you see with so many celebrities. Their children did not go out and get busted for drugs/alcohol or lewd behavior. And still we criticize. And why? For their expressions? For how we perceive they look? Linda McCartney was a lady, a woman, a wife, a mother, photographer, a light keyboard player and a back up singer. I Know many men and women, including myself, who have accomplished much less in life.

      +brandy copeland Thank you Brandy. How many people posting here can say they even came close to accomplishing what Linda McCartney accomplished in her life? She died with dignity and grace and together with Paul, raised a pretty stable family considering the fame and scrutiny they grew up under. She NEVER wanted to be a singer or in Paul's band and only did so at his insistence. She knew people laughed at her and criticized her playing and singing but she maintained the courage to stay on stage with her husband because he wanted her there. As a man who loves his own wife very much, I have to respect Linda for that very much. Hey, thanks for posting. Take care.

Why couldn't people just believe Linda might have been a nice person who raised a good family? Just because they are rich or famous doesn't mean that Linda's husband and children miss her less or loved her less or hurt less when they hear and read negative things about their mother who has passed and who loved them. Take care.

    Many of Paul's fans had it in for Linda. I think she was the best thing that ever happened to him. I appreciated her photos early on--back in the day when her photos most of Wing's album covers. She was a brilliant photographer. Stella is correct, when her mom took a picture it froze a moment in time and left no doubt about what the subject was thinking/feeling. Her quirky photos like the cider press where great fun as well as speaking louder than words. She sings with the angels and now truly has "wings".

    Paul McCartney has certainly faced some tragedy in his life, but seeing him here with two of his lovely children shows me why he doesn't dwell on the bad things that happen in life. He has a wonderful family and has stated that he also had a wonderful family upbringing. One thing that struck me is how much his daughter Mary (named for his Mum) looks like Linda and how much Stella takes after Paul.

Her name was Heather See. Paul later adopted Heather. She became Heather McCartney. Mary was born within a year or so after Paul married Linda. His first album after the Beatles breakup, shows Paul holding baby Mary inside his coat in Scotland. Linda took the picture.

And I admit that I am a person who actually loves to look at other peoples family and or vacation photos. I love people and their stories. And the McCartney family as subjects is wonderful to me, being in my 70s and a Beatle fan from way back in the beginning. I love her photos, all of them. The way Paul described her way of working is exactly how I see the photos, real life….not posed life. They feel like a true peek into the moment. They tell us something about her too. Thanks Linda. And thanks McCartney family for sharing your family photos with us. Very, very nice to see them.

    Linda McCartney has always been an inspiration to me. She was natural, compassionate, and always stood out and never followed the norm. Her style was something I took after as well, never really wore much makeup (if at all) and very simple yet classy clothing, a very natural beauty. She was an amazing woman and Paul certainly saw that in her and they had one of the greatest marriages in music history. They built an incredible family together and were always steadfast in their causes for vegetarianism and animal rights. Her legacy in photography, activism, and much more will always live on.
