Vicky Cornell Planning Statue Of Chris Cornell In Seattle

Vicky Cornell is working to preserve her husband’s legacy with a plan to get a statue of Chris Cornell in their hometown.

Cornell has hired artist and sculpture Wayne Toth to create the statue of Chris to be placed somewhere in the city.

This statue will be sculptured by the same artist who created the statue of Johnny Ramone that stands at his grave at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, where Chris Cornell is buried.

It is estimated the statue will be up in seven months. 

While Seattle attorney and family friend Mark Johnson continues to work with the city of Seattle to find a location for the statue, Cornell would love to hear from fans about where they think the statue should be placed.

“He is Seattle’s son, and we will be brining him home and honouring him, I hope, with all of you, your love and support,” Cornell told the Seattle Times.
