In one image, Stamos wrapped his arms around Saget while he sat behind a drum set. Another featured the cast performing music together, with Stamos playing guitar and Saget singing into a microphone.<\/p>\n<p>The nostalgic photo also included Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen holding tambourines as children, while Dave Coulier sang nearby.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe used to throw each other great birthday parties,\u201d Stamos wrote in his tribute. \u201cYour 70th today would\u2019ve been epic. I miss you and love you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fans and celebrities quickly filled the comments with messages of support and remembrance. Candace Cameron Bure responded with heart emojis, while actress Darcy Rose Byrnes wrote, \u201cSending you all so much love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For many viewers, Saget became known as television\u2019s ultimate father figure through his role as Danny Tanner, the widowed dad raising three daughters on \u201cFull House\u201d after his wife died in a drunk driving crash. His mix of humor, warmth and sincerity made him beloved by generations of fans.<\/p>\n<p>Saget died unexpectedly on Jan. 9, 2022, at age 65 after suffering blunt head trauma while staying at the The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes. His autopsy later revealed multiple skull fractures and brain bleeding caused by the injury.<\/p>\n<p>In the days after Saget\u2019s death, Stamos openly shared his grief, writing that he was \u201cbroken, gutted\u201d and in \u201ccomplete and utter shock.\u201d He also said, \u201cI will never ever have another friend like him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During Saget\u2019s memorial service, Stamos reflected on how their friendship grew over time. He admitted the two initially clashed while working together on \u201cFull House\u201d because of their different acting styles, but eventually developed a deep respect for one another both professionally and personally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was there through divorces, deaths, despair and dark days,\u201d Stamos said at the memorial. \u201cHe was there through love, marriage, a child and bright times. He was my lifeline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The touching birthday tribute served as another reminder of the strong bond the two shared \u2014 one built not only through television fame, but through years of loyalty, laughter and friendship that endured long after the cameras stopped rolling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Actor John Stamos is remembering his longtime friend and former co-star Bob Saget with an emotional tribute on what would have been Saget\u2019s 70th birthday.
