Following a three-decade battle with breast cancer, the world bid farewell to Olivia Newton-John on Monday who passed away "peacefully" at the age of 73 at her ranch in Southern California. The legend of the big screen was initially diagnosed with cancer in 1992, on the same weekend her dad succumbed to the disease. The actress underwent a mastectomy and nine months of chemotherapy.
