Hunter, who had been in critical condition in the hospital all week after a very serious accident in Kentucky, was taken off life support Sunday and passed away.
Montgomery said in a statement on the band’s website:

“My son Hunter went to heaven today. I appreciate all your prayers and love and thank you for giving us privacy as we grieve and say goodbye.”

So, so sad.
