Love said the ashes-filled bag, along with thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and clothes, were taken from her home sometime in May. "If I don't get them back I don't know what I'll do," she said.After Cobain's death in 1994, portions of his ashes were scattered at a Buddhist temple in New York and in the Wishkah River near his birth home of Aberdeen, Wash. The rest of his remains stayed with his widow, who said she "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."Nirvana emerged out of the Northwest rock scene in 1987 and went on to release three studio albums, including the groundbreaking "Nevermind" which has sold over 30 million copies worldwide since 1991. The band, which also included bassist Krist Novoselic and drummer Dave Grohl, is credited with popularizing alternative music, particularly grunge rock.This Week in Pop Culture History 9.30This Week in Pop Culture History 9.30
