John Lennon and George Harrison are the only dead Beatles as Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are still alive. John Lennon was cremated by his sceond wife Yoko Ono,in spite of requesting that if he ever died he didn't want to be cremated; and there was no funeral, only a brief statement by Yoko and the remaining 3 Beatles wrote 2 tribute songs. Nobody besides Yoko knows what was done with the ashes. George Harrison considered himself to be a follower of the Hindu religion. Harrison was cremated as is normal for the Hindu tradition and it was his will to be cremated after death, which he planned because he knew he was dying when he contracted Lung Cancer. Harrison's ashes were spread in the Ganges River by his son Dhani and second wife Olivia, because the Ganges River is a place sacred to Hinduism (but it was done privately so nobody is 100% sure what was done with his remains). there was a public memorial concert held for Harrison which is also on DVD, and a memorial "Imagine" mosaic in New York City in Strawberry Fields of Central Park dedicated to Lennon.
