George Harrison died Thursday from cancer. George was the lead guitarist for The Beatles. He was 58 years old.

“He left this world as he lived in it, conscious of God, fearless of death, and at peace, surrounded by family and friends,” the Harrison family said in a statement. “He often said, `Everything else can wait but the search for God cannot wait, and love one another.”’

“I am devastated and very, very sad,” Paul McCartney told reporters outside his London home Friday. “He was a lovely guy and a very brave man and had a wonderful sense of humor. He is really just my baby brother.”
