Rosaura Lopez

Rosaura Lopez

Rosaura Lopez Lorenzo (16 March 1932, Pontevedra, Spain – 19 September 2005, Pontevedra, Spain) was a maid of John Lennon and Yoko Ono in the Dakota apartment between 1976 and 1980.

In 2005 she wrote a book in Spanish reflecting that period: "En casa de John Lennon" (meaning "At John Lennon's House"), Hercules Ediciones, ISBN 84-96314-18-9.The book contains photos of John, Yoko and Sean along with some postcards that John and Yoko sent to her. And of course a lot of anecdotes as :

*Rosaura explains that she taught Lennon to bake bread.
*One day she unblocked the WC due to a marijuana bag.
*Lennon burned a coffee maker because he forgot to fill it with water
*That Yoko was very superstitious.
*John gave Yoko in her birthdays as carnations as years she did.
*The couple slept on a bedstead supported on two church pews
*Rosaura spoke with the Lennon killer the day before his death in the Dakota entrance.

Rosaura arrived in Queens (New York) in 1962 with her husband Secundino and in 1970, she began work as a cleaner at the Dakota building. When John arrived in 1976, she was included as part of the rental package.
