Linkin Park’s frontman, Chester Bennington’s death has left his fans and friends shell-shocked but one thing that is for sure is that the singer and songwriter will always remain alive in their memories. One such friend of the singer has come forward and shared some fond moments related to the times that he and Chester spent together as kids.

Chester and Chet's childhood bond

Fans have yet to get over the shocking suicide of Chester Bennington but everyone remembers him as a great artist. His close friends will also treasure their memories of the famous singer, and an example of this is his friend his Chet who has shared some warm memories of their childhood. According to a report by Ultimate Guitar, Chet shared these memories of their childhood on Reddit. He apparently remembers his close friend as a person who made him laugh and was a source of light during his tough times. In the message, Chet acknowledged that both of them underwent terrible abuse during their childhood but their friendship helped them get over the pain and as a result, they shared a bond.

Chet remembers one memory very specifically. He says that they used to have a lot of fun when Chester would sleep over at his house. They would make a bed out of an orange burnt-out sofa and spend time sharing stories, bouncing and watching movies. He also revealed that he started working with his mother at a hospital when Chester had become a big name.

However, they could not keep in touch as their lives took different directions - something that Chet now regrets and he wishes he had an opportunity to revive their friendship.
