Perry was found dead Oct. 28 at his Los Angeles residence.
Thats what I want.
When I die, I dont want Friends to be the first thing thats mentioned.
And Im going to live the rest of my life proving that.
He also shared that he was once in a coma and escaped death really narrowly.
Success didnt mean anything to him.
And neither did the Emmy nominations he received throughout his career.
As he explained toPeople Magazinelast year, addiction doesnt discriminate between famous and non-famous people.
It doesnt matter if youre successful or not successful, the disease doesnt care.
And thats a very scary thing to be living with.
We are devastated by the passing of our dear friend Matthew Perry.
Matthew was an incredibly gifted actor and an indelible part of the Warner Bros. Television Group family.
He was really talented, funny, famous, and rich.
He will be missed, someone wrote on YouTube.
Another said: RIP Matthew!
You helped so many of us addicts find help and ourselves.
We will miss your comedy but more than anything your beautiful heart!
Thank you for bringing light to this.
