UK's The Daily Mail reports that Glee stars Lea Michele, Darren Criss, Dianna Agron, Kevin McHale, Jenna Ushkowitz, Harry Shum, Jr. and much of the rest of the cast and crew of the hit musical dramedy series attended a memorial service in honor of recently deceased Glee leading player Cory Monteith yesterday.

FOX released a statement addressing the service held yesterday in honor of the tragically fallen young star - who was found dead at the age of 31 coming as a result of a lethal combination of drugs and alcohol - as follows: "Today, Ryan Murphy and Lea Michele gathered the cast, crew and producers of GLEE, along with colleagues from the network and studio, to share memories and music in an emotional celebration of the life of Cory Monteith. We thank the public for their continued outpouring of love and support as we grieve our friend and colleague during this difficult time."
