Ever since Soundgarden front man Chris Cornell was found dead at the age of 52 in a hotel room in Detroit back in May, the entire world of rock n' roll has been shaken considerably; especially Cornell's family. Cornell's wife Vicky Cornell has now as a way to help everyone deal with the pain has asked the fans to send tributes and messages to Chris to her so she can put them up on Chris's website.
Vicky made a tweet on August 23rd saying:
"Since my husband’s tragic passing, fans from all over the world have come together to share their feeling about what Chris and music meant to them, leaving thousands of messages of love while visiting him at Hollywood Forever and online.
You have opened your hearts to me and our children, and we are grateful for your sympathy, love and support in bringing us solace and helping us heal. You have given us the hope and strength to endure the pain of these very dark days. I want to thank all of you and hope you will leave your tributes, personal stories, and messages for our family, to be shared on Chris's site for everyone to read.
Loud love,
VC"
Included in the tweet was a link to the submission form, which can be found here.
I definitely like this idea. It really shows how much his wife loves and cares for him even from beyond the grave. It's a nice way for the fans as well to be able to express their honest, raw, heartfelt feelings about Chris for the whole world to be able to see for all time. Not everyone gets a memorial like this, so I'm glad Chris is one of the lucky few.
