Cory Monteith’s Family Fighting After Cory’s Death

Cory Monteith’s Father Is ‘Devastated’ To Miss Cremation
Cory’s mother decided to cremate his body in Vancouver after the viewing, and she was joined by Cory’s girlfriend, Lea Michele, 26, and his older brother, Shaun Monteith.
His father, who is divorced from Cory’s mom, told TMZ he was not invited to the last-minute viewing. He said he was “totally devastated” when he heard the news:
“I always loved both my sons and am going to miss Cory very, very much. I’m saddened at the fact that I couldn’t have been there to see my son before he was cremated.”
He and Cory were estranged, but they reunited once in 2011, and it was a happy occasion. It’s so sad that Joe didn’t have a chance to say a proper goodbye to Cory.
This is all truly heartbreaking. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Richard and everyone affected by Cory’s death during this sad time.
What do YOU think HollywoodLifers? Are shocked that Richard said it was “not cool” that his uncle never got to say goodbye?
