Challenge
We lost a lot with the passing of Chris Cornell. To many, he was a mentor, a brilliant writer; an inimitable voice. Until June 30th, this challenge is for the friends and fans to write their stories, poems, tributes: anything about him. We will be putting together a book for the Cornell family, of the posts entered, as well as making copies available for purchase, donating all proceeds to suicide prevention. In partnership with Seattle Refined, the most shared post will be read on air, and posted on seattlerefined.com.

Angelic
When I worked in radio Chris Cornell was playing solo at a small venue. I was hanging posters in the lobby and snuck in to watch his sound check. He sang acapella for a while. It was me, him and the sound guy. I kept waiting for him to stop and ask who I was and why I was there but he was in a trance. Truly angelic and he brought tears to my eyes. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. His talent and children live on and his presence will always exist.
