You can see how much pain his parents are suffering through.

I met irina and Viktor at Anton's birthday celebration at Hollywood forever cemetery..very nice people and my heart goes out to them for their loss.

[@antonyelchinfoundation9413]

It was nice to have you at the ceremony yesterday.

[@Sara-mw1dk]

Anton was great actor and human being, rest in peace.

[@zomska]

I saw the documentary celebrating Anton Yelchin's life: it was heart-wrenching but beautiful. He was certainly a very creative and kind soul. What was evident from the film was his extraordinary love for his parents. Rip Antosha

[@AlaskanGamerGuy]

Yelchin was amazingly talented and you could tell that he had a family that loved and supported him. He would have continued to have an amazing career in Hollywood, and he is greatly missed.

[@cytharecooper]

i was deeply moved by the documentary of this bright light Anton. The power of love shines through him that his mother and father nourished him with.

[@marissapilant7505]

Beautiful people. All of them. Anton would be so proud of them. ❤

[@dot1spot]

100%

the MOM is a ROCK i love her..and i feel like i want to give her a big hug RIP

[@SeanKSelfTapes]

I want to thank irena and viktor for bringing such an amazing human being into the world. I am an aspiring actor from ireland just starting out and I also have cystic fibrosis, I never believed I could get anywhere with acting because of it but when I found out anton had cf I started to believe it was possible. I pray for peace for both of you. I lost my mother to cancer recently so I can somewhat understand your pain. God bless you both 🙏 ❤️

Всегда так было приятно знать, что этот талантливый парень родом из России. Он был мостом между Россией и Западом. Яркая звездочка... Очень яркая и очень быстрая жизнь. Он сохранил свою русскую фамилию, несмотря ни на что... Как же хотелось увидеть его взрослым состоявшимся актером.

[@dauriya.6541]

Спасибо Ирине и Виктору за такого солнечного и потрясающего мальчика! Он был и остаётся в наших сердцах! ❤

[@irtzy]

I’m sorry for your loss.

[@puppydog12000]

he was so beautiful I didnt know he died until now its horriblle I loved his hair and everything

[@axcn4733]

loved his hair... ok...

[@LittleRedMoon16]

I can’t imagine losing a child let alone your only child. These beautiful souls don’t deserve that pain.

[@CarpeDiemBaby7891]

Ирина и Виктор очень хорошие люди, судя по интервью. Соболезную им. Воспитали прекрасного парня.

[@fly69doc]

always like him as an actor ever since i saw him in Heart in atlantis...he seemed to be a very humble and down to earth. This is very trajic and i'll miss the kid

[@niknico8999]

Rip mi dispiace moltissimo, ho visto tutti i suoi film, un abbraccio forte di cuore ❤

[@puppydog12000]

I am so sorry to hear about it my sympathies

[@denizb.4142]

I see the pain in there eyes

[@kiaramcghee9353]

I didn't know much about him but it's tragic that he was taken so you by a reckless. Decision by the car company

[@malakas9351]

taken far to soon watching odd Thomas now love your films always will rest in peace my friend ✌️👍🙏

[@LyricalXilence]

Oh gawd I love the Russian accent

[@nortonkelly8460]

I watched Odd Thomas and Anton instantly became my favourite actor, I thought Odd Thomas could have become a big franchise that would have launched him into the stratosphere, I could picture him playing a young Indiana Jones or Luke Skywalker and making a part like that his own,

[@MS-wb5mf]

Things like that are good for the parents , the worst thing is to sit at home and grieve.

[@missmoxie9188]

It’s so sad thinking Anton had cystic fibrosis and had to work so hard to stay alive only to go the way he did

[@stephaniewilliams168]

Wow that is very sad😢😢

[@tolucalofts821]

My friend and I went to the cemetery last year for Anton’s birthday and his mom asked us to leave - very politely but I still felt awful and embarrassed.

[@dirte012]

can you elaborate on this story?

[@aislinnstanton1196]

She asked you to get away from his grave? Or leave the area?

[@stephaniewilliams168]

​@@aislinnstanton1196probably just leave his area

[@stephaniewilliams168]

​@@aislinnstanton1196probably just leave his area

[@dot1spot]

It’s understandable. She was his mother and probably wanted to reflect privately on her son’s birthday. I don’t think it was personal but it would be hard not to take it that way.

[@josephzielinski8817]

Their beloved boy is dead, the Yelchin couple only have one son, especially his father had a brother as his uncle.

[@raykraus2546]

Milo!

[@roboneko5434]

白发人送黑发人。。。Be strong！

[@Amanda-zc8bn]

They didnt make that film Anton. They had a different agenda.

[@lookingforwyatteearp3137]

Dude wasn't even that much of a Hollywood Star. Most people including myself don't recognize his name.

[@GhostFace1301]

I’m sorry what are you getting at here? Are you trying to be disrespectful intentionally? I hate how people view actors, if you’re not an A lister you’re a nobody... Anton was a very accomplished actor, especially for his age. An extremely underrated talent that know was only going to get bigger and better as his career continued

[@stephaniewilliams168]

​@@GhostFace1301yeah that is the tragedy
