Cory Monteith Memorial Card | GLEE

Playing Glee's Finn Hudson, Cory Monteith won over fans,costars and even celebs likeTaylor Swift with his smooth voice and boyish looks. 

Surprisingly, the Canadian heartthrob grew up rocking out on the drum set, not manning the mic. He only

found his way into acting when a casting director spotted the high school dropout and saw a star in the making. After moving to Vancouver from Calgary, he landed guest-starring roles on Supernatural, Smallville and Kyle XYbefore he scored his breakout role on Glee. 

After four successful seasons on the show, Monteith checked into rehab, drawing the support of his Glee costars and off-screen girlfriendLea Michele. However, only a few months after his release, Monteith was found dead in a Vancouver hotel room from a drug overdose. He was 31.

Prior to the August 1 rerun of Glee, Fox aired a special Cory Monteith Memorial Card, which you can view above.

The wordless clip features many of Monteith's most memorable moments from the show and ends with a title card reading "Cory Monteith Forever in our hearts."
