Bob Saget and Norm Madonald were extremely good lifelong friends. Both men died unexpectedly (to the outside world) well younger than normal, within months of each other. I hope they're having a laugh together.

Probably trying to out joke John Ritter and Don Rickles.💔😭

Norm MacDonald is reading a newspaper and Bob Saget is busy not RAPING AND KILLING A GIRL IN 1990!!!

America's dad and America's crazy uncle 😜.....thanks for all the laughs you will be missed😥

[@d.b.cooper8878]

The way people really show their emotion for Bob in their remembrance’s it shows how much he really touched them. You will definitely be missed Mr. Saget. Rest In Peace.

My Mom passed away after a long battle with scleroderma. Thank you Bob Saget for your years of support in raising funds, and thank you Rich for mentioning his work. I hope someone can pick up where Bob left off. It's a brutal disease that is underfunded.

[@jakebee7205]

so sry for your loss

[@jenniferr9624]

I am sorry for your loss.

[@EddyG0rdo]

I’m sorry for your loss. My Mom has it, as well. It is so hard to watch her suffer, but she is relatively stable. I spend as much time with her as I can because I don’t know when my last chance will be. Bob is a wonderful man for bringing more awareness to this horrible disease.

[@mikeakey3358]

Rich, that was wonderfully moving

[@psarahgalarneau]

Please donate! My daughter has this cruel disease. Bob will forever be my hero for his dedication to this cause.

[@thepeejmoses4343]

Rest in peace Bob! Condolences to all his friends and family! 😭

Stop it you weenie benders Stop idol worshipping Saget was a complete turd of a human being. Stop letting the screens 📺 📱 🖥 Influence your mind so much. Rich Eisen just played himself with this nonsense

[@ellie3910]

I knew a guy who hated Bob Saget for years stemming from an incident that happened when said guy took Saget for a Jeep Tour in Sedona. This grudge lasted until he met Saget again, confronted him, and received a wholehearted apology from Bob.

[@fab.silva1119]

Was the apology for being unfunny?

[@snarfkat1]

I never knew this was how Bob was held in the hearts of everyone that knew him! What an amazing way to be remembered. Bob is doing God's work now! ❤

Still Grieving Over Norm, and Too Soon After We Lose His Good Friend Bob!!! A Man Us Fans LOVE just as Much!!! Loosing Bob Saget is a TOTAL LOSS for Us Fans!!! Rest In Peace Bob!!! Our TEARS Are For You Buddy!!! 😞

It’s amazing seeing how many people were so deeply affected by Bob Saget. Truly a good man. The world is much darker today.

[@isabellelecot2780]

Very well said!

[@enshk79]

Not that much darker. He was the full house guy, so what?

[@doctorsuave]

@@enshk79 cool. Edgy. You’re fun. If you don’t see how the loss of someone who dedicated their life to making people laugh makes the world darker, your own life must be awful dim, so you have my pity.

[@doctorsuave]

@ku200986 I don’t even think it’s a case of jealousy, I think some people are just shitty and hid behind silly screen names to say shitty things they KNOW they’d never get away with saying in the real world.

[@busyrand]

Bless Bob Saget. I appreciate this man's duality. He's a man after my own heart. I watch The Aristocrats every half year and enjoy the raw humour he displays.

[@briangarrow448]

We lost a good man with Bob’s passing. My kids loved his prime time show. And I loved his raunchy humor. He was the type of guy every guy wants as a friend.

[@naskifife]

It’s interesting how most people are quick to say “Bob was nothing like Danny Tanner”. Here, Rich says, “That was him too, man.” What a beautiful combination of a human.

[@lisahenderson8963]

I feel like I lost my dad all over again. RIP Bob you had a beautiful heart!

[@Coffeehausstudios]

Rip bob, my heart goes out to you rich. It’s hard to lose a friend you hold so dear.

[@JoelElRican]

Full House and America's Funniest Home Videos was a big part of my childhood. Learning about how loose Bob Saget was, it was a huge culture shock for me.

[@vitamind2387]

When I think of my childhood Bob is one of my first thoughts, he was my Sunday night every week as a kid growing up in the 90’s.

[@lauraprochaska8521]

I am just completely heart broken about this loss. It’s hits me, a 41 year old, hard; he was all of our father, Danny Tanner. A piece of all people aged 35 -50 died with Bob Saget last night. May he truly rest in paradise. He will be sorely missed. X

[@LudiCrust.]

I met him at a restaurant in Indianapolis about 15yrs ago he was insanely nice to my family and I. My dad was a career truck driver and a bit rough around the edges Bob had an innate ability to know his audience and had my dad in stitches in the whole time and it was FILTHY. He very well could be the funniest man ever because his whole schtick works so well with his full house wholesome persona that jars so incredibly with his filthy comedy. Dude is a legend.

[@Jude74]

The outpouring of grief really tells you everything you need to know about Bob Saget. A remarkable human being gone too soon. 😢

[@eddielee3928]

RIP Bob. Thank you for the laughs, happiness, and joy you've brought to millions. Forever missed :(

[@jaywatson5463]

I have that disease Rich. I watched the TV movie about her struggle with it. My was cried. Thankfully I have a lesser version, but I am for ever grateful to his commitment to this cause. He will be missed. Thank you for your heartfelt tribute.

The fact that Bob was alone makes me so sad. His family and friends are in my prayers. I'm so sorry for your loss, Rich.

[@StephenDmitri]

he died peacefully!!!!! did you want him to drop dead at party full of cameras?

[@23hunter152]

@@StephenDmitri she meant he died without family around him. It’s great he appeared to have died peacefully, but I’d much rather my family be around me when I die than be alone.

Omg This world is full of brainwashed clowns

[@LAHowell]

I’ve seen a few of the tributes that Rich has made for some of his friends who have passed over the years and I don’t think the sports world will take a hit like it will when Rich passes. I hope he lives much much longer but man, I don’t think there’s anyone involved in sports that I love more than Rich Eisen.

A great and fitting tribute Rich from one of Bob's many many friends. It' hard to believe when someone as young as Bob passes especially with another great friend of his, Norm Macdonald also passing recently, unreal. Bob seemed to have lived a great life however and was happy to be back doing stand up. RIP Bob And Norm.

[@nolasfamily3913]

A beautiful tribute. Since Bob's passing there are two words that the world has heard a lot for the first time in quite awhile, kindness & love. Everyone who knew him said he was kind and he said to many friends/guests in his podcasts he believed in telling people the importance of saying I love you each and everyday to those he loved. More than his comedy and passing away relatively young, this will be his legacy. Rest in Peace Bob.
