Mary Travers(Nov 9, 1936 - Sept 16, 2009) and the Kingston Trio Where Have All The Flowers Gone

Mary Travers, one part of the folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary, died after a years long battle with leukemia. She was 72.
Lyrics:
Where have all the flowers gone? Long time passing. Where have all the flowers gone? Long time ago.
Where have all the flowers gone? Young girls picked them, ev'ry one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young girls gone? Long time passing. Where have all the young girls gone? Long time ago.
Where have all the young girls gone? Gone to young men ev'ry one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young men gone? Long time passing. Where have all the young men gone? Long time ago.
Where have all the young men gone? Gone to soldiers ev'ry one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

Where have all the soldiers gone? Long time passing. Where have all the soldiers gone? Long time ago.
Where have all the soldiers gone? Gone to graveyards, ev'ry one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

Where have all the graveyards gone? Long time passing. Where have all the graveyards gone? Long time ago.
Where have all the graveyards gone? Gone to flowers, ev'ry one. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

God bless Mary. What a treasure. The voice was sweet, beautiful. What a wonderful woman. She has left us with a good memory.

I met Mary when she attended the graduation ceremony at New York Institute of Technology where, she told me, one of her relatives was graduating...I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to tell her how much enjoyment she gave me with her work when I was a college student many years earlier. (I hardly recognized her because, I assume, of the physical effects of her treatment for her cancer.)

You will never hear any folk group do better three part harmony then Peter, Paul and Mary did. What a beautiful sound. I learned alot from listening to them.
