The Golden Globe award winner continued:

“He really was dealt a tough one. I miss him dearly. We all do. Boy, he made us laugh really hard.”

Perry was found dead in his jacuzzi on Oct. 28 following an apparent drowning at his Los Angeles home, TMZ reported. He was 54 years old.

On Nov. 15, Aniston posted a touching tribute to him on her Instagram page.

“Having to say goodbye to our Matty has been an insane wave of emotions that I’ve never experienced before. We all experience loss at some point in our lives. Loss of life or loss of love,” she wrote in the caption of memories she shared of the two.

She added, “Being able to really SIT in this grief allows you to feel the moments of joy and gratitude for having loved someone that deeply.”
