    Richard Ross, owner of Home, was a fairly important person in Lennon's
    life.

    When Ross became sick in the late 70s, Lennon (who had nominally
    returned to Ono) was surprised to visit Ross at the same time May Pang
    was present. Ross spoke to them both a bit, then he said: "It looks
    like you two need some time alone. I'll visit the lobby for a bit."

    It was also while out with Ross that Lennon met artist Alexa Grace. She rebuffed Lennon's advances, saying "I'm not a groupie!" but Lennon never
    forgot her, and reminisced about her in his diaries.

    In Dakota Days, author John Green quotes Lennon as confessing to guilt
    over not visiting a cancer-stricken friend of his who was in the
    hospital. The friend was, I am convinced Ross, who succumbed to the
    disease several years after Lennon's murder.
