Tonight, Glee is saying farewell to Finn Hudson and the actor who played him, Cory Monteith. "The Quarterback" will surely be as much as an emotional roller-coaster for the viewers as it was for the cast while they filmed it.

Since his tragic death this past summer, his Glee costars, the directors he's worked with and friends in the industry have come forward with kind words, sweet memories and loving messages for Monteith. His on and offscreen girlfriend Lea Michele, Glee creator Ryan Murphy, Monte Carlo costar Selena Gomez and Neil Patrick Harris are just some of the few stars who have honored the actor, and as a tribute to Finn and Cory, we gathered up all the best comments as our own way of remembering the quarterback.
