Glee cast members and guest stars react to Cory Monteith’s passing on Twitter
The entertainment world was rocked Saturday night by the tragic news that Glee actor Cory Monteith had been found dead in his Vancouver hotel room Saturday just after noon. Cory, who has talked openly before about his struggles with drug addiction, was only 31 years old at the time of his death. Some of the cast and crew of Glee have since taken to Twitter to express their condolences and admiration for Cory and we’ve collected all of them that we could find for you here.
We are deeply saddened by this tragic news. Cory was an exceptional talent and an even more exceptional person.

I'm not quite to sure what to say 🙁 I'm very glad I got to spend a day filming one scene with Cory.

I found out exactly why his fans love him so much. He will be very sorely missed. And I do not believe that death is in any way final.
