clh2285 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Via www.oneloveforchi.com "Our dearest Family, This is the hardest thing to write to you. Your love and heart and devotion to Chi was unconditional and amazing. I know that you will always remember him as a giant of a man on stage with a heart for every one of you. He was taken to the emegency room and at 3 am today his heart just suddenly stopped. He left this world with me singing songs he liked in his ear. He fought the good fight.You stood by him sending love daily. He knew that he was very loved and never alone. I will write more later. I will be going through the oneloveforchi and any other information may not be reliable. If you have any stories or messages to share please send them to the onelove site. Please hold Mae and Ming and the siblings and especially Chi’s son, Gabriel in your prayers. It is so hard to let go. With great love and “Much Respect!” Mom J (and Chi)" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Having the pleasure of meeting & chatting with him one of the first times I saw Deftones, this is heartbreaking and saddest news ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clh2285 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'm very glad I was able to see the band with his energy but It is very sad news. It's really hard to put into words how I feel at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

converge88 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 So sad, great musician and a power house live. I actually thought for a bit there that he would pull through. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uniquemel0dy Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 It was only a matter of time. Never was a huge fan of the band, but I defiantly respected how they handled the whole situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwitchingTongues Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 As a huge Deftones fan I am saddened by the news. Deftones self titled album is one of my all time favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrewest Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Damn, I hadn't heard anything in a while on him but I thought he was finally getting better. That's some damn shitty news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steventangent Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 One of my favorite bassists/musicians ever. He was such a talented, creative, positive dude, from every time I've ever seen him or heard/read interviews. It's always a bummer when musicians I like die, but this one stings a little more. andrewlucas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundboard Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 This is sad news. I have a lot of respect for the music he made with the Deftones. It's a shame to lose such a talented musician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingnatural Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I heard the terrible news this morning. It really sucks to know I we'll never see him again. He's was a really good dude and was always incredibly nice to me over the years. There's nothing much more I can say. We lost a truly awesome guy. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
