Cornell’s widow, Vicky, held a vigil last month commemorating the first anniversary of his death. “It is with great emotion I reach out to all of you as the one-year anniversary of my husband’s passing approaches. Chris was loved, so much, by so many,” she said in a statement.
She continued: “As we know, there are millions of fans and not everyone can physically be there. We would be honored if you share posts and videos of how Chris' music has touched you. We can feel your love no matter how far. Light a candle, say a prayer, speak his name.” (sul/wng)
