Kurt Cobain`s Ashes Stolen

Text

Courtney Love carried Kurt`s remains in a pink bear-shaped handbag, which went missing from her apartment.

World media report that the ashes of late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain went missing. Courtney Love kept his remains in a pink teddy bear-shaped handbag, together with his hair, and the singer realised the items were missing several weeks ago. 

- I can't believe anyone would take Kurt`s ashes from me. I find it disgusting right now I'm suicidal. If I don't get them back I don't know what I'll do. They were all I had left of my husband. I used to take them everywhere with me just so I could feel Kurt was still with me. Now it feels like I have lost him all over again – Courtney was crushed.

The never forgotten Kurt Cobain committed suicide in 1994, shooting himself with a shotgun and he was under the influence of drugs the moment he died, it was determined later on. Kurt had left a suicide note. Many still remember his message: "It`s better to burn out than to fade away”.
