June 09, 2024

PHILADELPHIA — Actor and comedian Bob Saget is being remembered by his friends and costars in the Hollywood community.

Saget was found dead in Florida on Sunday at the age of 65.

The Philadelphia native was best known for playing the widowed father of three Danny Tanner on ABC’s “Full House” from 1987 to 1995. He reprised his role in the Netflix spin-off “Fuller House” from 2016 to 2020.

Saget’s costars on both shows reacted on social media to the star’s death and shared fond memories of their friendships.

“This one hurts. He had the biggest heart of anyone in Hollywood. He gave the biggest hugs. I am gutted that I will never be able to hug him again. Bob ended every text, every interaction with “Love you.” Didn’t matter how long or short we’d been apart. He loved so deeply and so fiercely. And he never hesitated to tell you just how much you meant to him. This is the greatest lesson I learned from Bob Saget – don’t hesitate to tell people you love them. I feel at peace knowing that Bob knew exactly how much I adore him.

Rest well, my dear friend. I have no doubt you are making everyone in Heaven laugh until their cheeks hurt, just as you did here on Earth.”

John Brotherton

” His heart was abundantly full of love and kindness for others. Determined to make everyone smile and laugh and love a little more. He was truly the best.

“Nov. 8 was the last day I saw Bob Saget. I was at the showing of my friend McKenna’s movie, Ghostbusters. It was a chance meeting. He will always be my Grandpa Danny. Bob was the true patriarch of Fuller House. He was a warm and loving man. I will miss him a lot. I’m literally in shock. “

ABC Entertainment

“We are deeply saddened by the sudden loss of our friend and colleague, Bob Saget, who will always be a member of the ABC family. Whether playing a loving father on “Full House” or hosting the early years of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” with his signature wit and charm, Bob always knew how to connect with families through heart and humor. Our thoughts are with his family as we mourn the passing of such an incredibly gifted comedian and talent.”
