And we loved him deeply.
He was such a part of our DNA.
We were always the 6 of us.
For Matty, he KNEW he loved to make people laugh.
As he said himself, if he didnt hear the laugh he thought he was going to die.
His life literally depended on it.
And boy did he succeed in doing just that.
He made all of us laugh.
In the last couple weeks, Ive been pouring over our texts to one another.
Laughing and crying then laughing again.
Ill keep them forever and ever.
I found one text that he sent me out of nowhere one day.
It says it all.
I talk to you every day… sometimes I can almost hear you saying could you BE any crazier?
I will never forget your impeccable comic timing and delivery, Schwimmer wrote on Instagram.
And you had heart.
This photo is from one of my favorite moments with you.
Now it makes me smile and grieve at the same time.
We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew.
We were more than just cast mates.
LeBlanc and Cox posted personal tributes earlier today.
Perry was found dead by his assistant in a hot tub at his home on October 28.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiners Office has listed thecause of death as deferred pending toxicology reports.
