Peter Yarrow — one-third of the legendary 1960s trio Peter, Paul and Mary — passed away on Tuesday. He was 86.

“Our fearless dragon is tired and has entered the last chapter of his magnificent life. The world knows Peter Yarrow the iconic folk activist, but the human being behind the legend is every bit as generous, creative, passionate, playful, and wise as his lyrics suggest,” daughter Bethany Yarrow said in a statement.
