Like many, Jimmy Kimmel took a moment to mourn his dear friend Bob Saget on Monday and there wasn’t a dry eye in sight.

At the start of Monday’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host shared a tribute to the 65-year-old actor who died unexpectedly on Sunday in his hotel room in Orlando, Florida.

He was in the middle of a stand-up comedy tour and appeared to be in good health, so news of his passing has hit everyone incredibly hard.
