Summary
It’s always sad when we have to say goodbye to a “friend.” On Saturday, Hollywood was rocked by the news that “Friends” star Matthew Perry had died at the age of 54. Not only was Matthew an incredibly gifted actor, he also helped a lot of people who were struggling with addiction - just as Matthew had throughout most of his life. Celeb tributes are now pouring in for the man who made Chandler Bing one of the most iconic and beloved TV characters of all time. And as much as it warms our hearts to see all the love out there for Matthew, we still can’t believe that he’s gone.
