Though we ask for privacy at this time, we invite you to join us in remembering the love and laughter that Bob brought to the world."
'Full House' counterpart John Stamos stated, "I am broken. I am gutted. I am in complete and utter shock. I will never ever have another friend like him. I love you so much Bobby."
Others in the industry were also quick to pay tribute. Marc Maron said in a tweet: "Truly one of the nicest guys and so funny. Very sad." Actor Tim Allen also tweeted: "Terribly sad news great friend, great comedian and wonderful man Bob Saget passed. Hit me hard. Prayers and my open heart to his family."
