See John Stamos’ Sweet Tribute for the Late Bob Saget’s 68th Birthday
John Stamos is missing his friend's hand to hold on for this special day.
The Full House alum celebrated what would have been Bob Saget's 70th birthday, sharing sweet memories from their decades-long friendship, including the last photo they took together.
John's May 17 Instagram tribute featured the final shot with himself, his wife Caitlin McHugh, Bob and his widow Kelly Rizzo posing during an evening out for dinner by the ocean. He wrote "Last Pic" over the memory.
"We used to throw each other great birthday parties," the 62-year-old—who starred as Uncle Jesse opposite Bob's Danny Tanner in the ABC sitcom from 1987 to 1995—captioned the post. "Your 70th today would've been epic! I miss you and love you."
John also included a video of his close friend singing, a selfie of the pair during an outing, Bob playing the drums, them posing with Rihanna, Bob bowling in a robe and the two performing onstage together.
The Grandfathered actor previously shared a glimpse into their peaceful evening, which would eventually become their final night together before Bob, 65, died from a fall that caused blunt head trauma at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Orlando, Fla. in January 2022.
"That was the last night that I saw him," he explained on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in October 2023. "You go to dinner and you never think it's going to be the last time you see them."
"He was everything that I wanted Bob to be," John recalled. "He was calm and he listened and he was so sweet. We were there with these two girls and we looked at each other like, 'God. What did we do to get these beautiful wives?' It was just such a beautiful night."

The Secrets of Eden star emphasized that losing a loved one often reprioritizes what really matters.
"You're always in a hurry in life, I've got to go do this, I've got to do fo that," he said. "When something like that happens, you want to remember everything. What did we eat? What did we do? We ordered some cake and had some coffee. We stayed longer than we normally would have."
John shared a gentle reminder with the viewers, adding, "If you have the chance, if you're with someone you love, someone you care about: Stay a little longer."

Danny Tanner wasn't the only fatherly role Saget played. From 2001 to 2002, Saget portrayed Matt Stewart, a widowed dad who raises his daughters Sarah (Kat Dennings) and Emily (Brie Larson) with some assistance from his father (Jerry Adler) and is also a teacher at Sarah's high school.
"I'm speechless," Dennings wrote on Instagram. "Bob Saget was the best. So kind. I was his TV daughter for one season and he was generous, protective, caring and wonderful. He talked about his kids constantly. Rest In Peace."

From 2005 to 2014, Saget served as the narrator on How I Met Your Mother and provided the voice of Josh Radnor's character Ted Mosby in the future.
During a 2014 interview with Larry King, Saget said "it was a beautiful thing to have been involved in it" and recalled being offered the role while he was working on a play in New York.
"I did it immediately because I read it and it was a love letter. It was a relationship show," he said. "And it's been an amazing thing that I forget, people say, 'I love your show.' I say, 'Well, it's their show 'cause they're the most talented actors that made this happen.'"

While he wasn't a regular member of the cast, Saget did make a few cameos on Entourage, including in 2005, 2009 and 2010 episodes and the 2015 movie. He also made brief appearances on other shows, including a 2018 episode of Shameless.
