It has been one day over a year since the death of alternative-rock star vocalist Chester Bennington passed, with his constant memory still sprinkling around us. In honor and tribute of 1st anniversary of Bennington’s passing, his bandmates of Linkin Park recently released a heart-thumping, tear jerking letter addressed to him. As noted by The PRP, it reads:
To our brother Chester,
It has been a year since your passing—a surreal rotation of grief, heartbreak, refusal, and recognition. And yet it still feels like you are close by, surrounding us with your memory and your light. Your one-of-a-kind spirit has authored an indelible imprint on our hearts—our jokes, our joy, and our tenderness.
Eternally grateful for the love, life, and creative passion you shared with us and the world. We miss you more than words can express.
Love,
M, J, D, R, B
