I hate seeing the news of another singer passing this way. Sending love to Chester’s friends and family. ❤️to his band mate brothers.

I do, actually. It may be a lot for a tweet. But I’ll screen cap a note and send it when I get home tonight

Thank you. I hate to see this happening and I know many people would love to help the artists they love in whatever way they can.
