Saget served as a board member for the National Scleroderma Foundation in his sister’s honor. In 1993, Saget lost his sister at the age of 47 to scleroderma, a disease that hardens bodily tissues.
Other celebrities reacted to Saget’s death.
“Bob Saget was as lovely a human as he was funny,” TV producer and writer Norman Lear wrote on Twitter. “And to my mind, he was hilarious. We were close friends and I could not have loved him more.”
