“The hardest day of my life”
Bob Saget passed away last Sunday (January 9) in his hotel room in Orlando, Florida. He was in the middle of a comedy tour and had performed on stage the night before. In the days following his sudden death, numerous Hollywood stars, celebrity friends and former colleagues paid tribute to the actor. Candace Cameron Bure, who played Saget’s daughter on Full House, described him in an Instagram post as the “glue” of the “Full House” family.
Saget played the role of family man Danny Tanner from 1987 to 1995. John Stamos, who played his brother-in-law on the show, was also devastated. “Today will be the hardest day of my life”, he wrote before the funeral on Twitter. As one of the pallbearers, he paid his last respects to his colleague, as shown by photos published by “People” magazine, among others.
Saget is survived by his wife Kelly Rizzo (42) and three adult daughters from his first marriage.
