Just days after Monteith died at age 31, Lynch recalled him as being "a real bright light in our family, and we’ve lost a really great guy."

“Cory’s one of the biggest hearts, ” she added. "He once flew across the country on his own nickel to meet with a sick kid whose last wish was to meet him, that's the kind of guy he was. He was a real giver."

Lynch continued, “He was one of those guys that … you know, he knew he was breathing rarefied air. The gifts that this wonderful show gave us. I don't think he left one day unlived."
