ITP V.013 ONLY ONE PER COFFIN: R.I.P CHI CHENG (FORMER DEFTONES BASSIST)

Former bassist of California NU METAL warriors DEFTONES CHI CHENG has passed at 42 after battling brain damage and paralysis after a 2008 car accident.
After years of CHI CHENG in a minimally conscious state, surgery to remove a part of his brain, infections and a few intervals of consciousness during recovery   (he was able to lift his leg upon command, hear and see things around him but not respond verbally),  CHI has passed, 3AM today. 

DEFTONES are currently on tour and should have a statement  soon.

FROM ITP V.013: Saddened to hear this,  and what an awesome caring family CHI CHENG has, setting up awesome benefits for CHENGs recovery. Very much like COVAN of Polish death metal warriors DECAPITATED, (semi conscious after a 2007 tour bus accident)  great friends and family, never give up and never give in.




FROM ONE LOVE FOR CHI:
 “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)”
