For me it was Cheater Bennington. Linkin Park music helped me through some hard times and I know some of the more impactful lyrics came from him and what he experienced.

Knowing he couldn’t take it anymore definitely hit Me hard particularly as someone I looked up to from young age …

Who was yours ?

Anton Yelchin was so goddamn young and had an entire career ahead of him.

The few things he got to do were all spectacular. Fuck Chrysler for making the shitty vehicle that ended up killing him.

His star was just rising and the way he died was so fucking stupid and preventable.

No drugs or partying, just a piece of shit American car…

Such an unnecessary and unlucky way to die, too. He died way too young. Did the parents end up winning the lawsuit?
