The entertainment industry and world are reeling in shock after Bob Saget’s untimely death was confirmed this morning by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. The Full House father and stand-up comic was 65.
“Bob Saget was as lovely a human as he was funny. And to my mind, he was hilarious. We were close friends and I could not have loved him more,” Norman Lear wrote in tribute.
“Still in shock. I just spoke with Bob a few days ago. We stayed on the phone as usual making each other laugh. RIP to friend, comedian & fellow Aristocrat Bob Saget,” comedian Gilbert Gottfried wrote in a tweet.
“There wasn’t a kinder person in Hollywood than Bob Saget,” actor Josh Gad wrote. “I am having trouble wrapping my head around this. I do not want to believe this. It’s all too much to handle.”
“Bob was at my house in October interviewing me for a documentary. He was sharp and dark and funny as always and we were gonna catch up over coffee when he was done editing and now I’m crying,” comedian Patton Oswalt wrote in a tweet.
