Whitford reflected on Perry’s death in a poignant tribute to the Friends actor on social media.
He told Robert: I love Matt. Everyone who ever worked with him loved him. He was incredibly kind…not just to his co-stars, but really to everyone…the funniest human being on the planet…a big, open heart. He fought heroically against monsters all his life…He wanted people who were struggling with the problems he had to know that there was a place to get help. I was thinking. If you don’t suffer from those things, you need to support those who are going through it…His big heart, his amazing intelligence made him essentially an underdog…He will be missed will be missed. ”
