Lea Michele Shares Tribute Five Years After Cory Monteith’s Passing

Lea Michele pays tribute to Cory Monteith’s passing.

Lea Michele took to social media to share a touching quote in respect and regard to the fifth year of Cory Monteith’s passing. The two starred in the popular television show Glee, playing Rachel Berry and Finn Hudson. Their characters dated on screen as well as in real life, and they were together at the time of his death.

Cory Monteith passed away on July 13, 2013, at 31 years old from a drug overdose which shocked his fans and friends. Each year, Lea Michele posts and shares the emotional feelings with her fans.

In 2015, Michele posted a photo writing, “today we remember the laughter and joy you brought in our lives every day,” and the following year: “I know every day you’re watching over me, and smiling.” Last year, the actress wrote, “Hard to believe it’s been 4 years…We miss you C…love you more” alongside a picture of the two of them (see main image.)

On Friday, Michele posted a photo of the sun shining over the ocean with the caption, “There are some who bring a light so great to the world, that even after they’ve gone, the light remains.” This message did not include Cory Monteith’s name, but the message was a clear tribute to someone’s she’s lost.
