Kelly Rizzo Shares Moving Tribute To Bob Saget On One Year Anniversary Of His Death

Kelly Rizzo, Bob Saget's widow, is keeping her husband's memory alive on the one-year anniversary of his passing.

Rizzo has been quite transparent in sharing her grief with her Instagram followers over the last year, and she is not slowing down anytime soon.

The "Eat Travel Rock" blogger took to the social network to commemorate the one-year anniversary of her husband's death.

In her post, Rizzo pens a touching tribute to her beloved husband, describing how she feels as she continues to navigate his sudden passing.

Saget was found unresponsive in a Flordia hotel room on January 9th, 2022, after performing a show. The cause of the "Full House" actor's death was later revealed to be a head injury wherein he sustained "blunt force trauma."

Saget's "Full House" co-star Candace Cameron Bure once revealed she frequently leaned on Rizzo while navigating her grief. "It's been talking to my friends, talking to Kelly, talking to my 'Full House' family," she told People.

Rizzo definitely shares Cameron Bure's love for publicly discussing Saget on social media; she recently revealed how she felt publicly discussing her grief on social media has helped her fans and followers.

In an interview with NBC News, Rizzo said she believed her candid grief posts had "some sort of impact on people who have gone through something similar" to her loss.

She also added that her candid posts provided her with "this whole new sense of purpose and life" (per The Blast).

Rizzo commemorated her fourth wedding anniversary and her first Christmas without Saget.

"Happy 4-year anniversary honey," she would write in her Instagram tribute, "our wedding was the most special day for us and our loved ones, and I will cherish these memories for the rest of my life." (via The Blast)

Rizzo touched on the universal feeling of grief one can feel during the holidays in her Christmas tribute, posted on December 24th.

"The holidays are a time for hope, love, and togetherness," Rizzo wrote, "I pray that if you're missing a loved one this holiday season, that you're blessed with many deep and loving memories and gratitude that will help carry you through," she continued in her holiday tribute.

"He told me time and time again how much he loved your family and was so looking forward to spending that Christmas," Saget's "Full House" co-star and longtime close friend John Stamos commented on the post. "Love you," he continued.

"Love you. I miss him," Cameron Bure commented.

In an animated photo set posted on Instagram earlier on Monday, Rizzo expressed her feelings inspired by spending life with Saget.

"One year. Our hearts are so heavy," she began her tribute, "How could I not have talked to or seen my loving husband in a whole year? The surreal-ness never subsides. I've accepted the reality long ago but it still seems unreal when I see photos or videos of him so full of life. But there is one thing I carry with me every single day that makes this survivable," Rizzo adds, "I AM THE LUCKIEST. I am the luckiest that I got to be his wife. I am the luckiest that I got to live his warmth, laughter, his brilliance, and love. I am the luckiest that I get to have his girls by my side. I am the luckiest I got to watch him first hand help people, make them happy, and make the world a better place," she continued.

"Some people can live 1,000 lifetimes and never live as fully as he did," Rizzo adds, "And to that I have to say, 'Well Done.' You really won life, honey. And that is why I will be forever grateful for him and the endless love he gave me, until my last day."

Rizzo added Ben Folds' "The Luckiest" to accompany her post, revealing it had been one of Saget's "favorite songs."

"Also on a funny note," she would add in a comment, "I need to add, Bob would not be thrilled with all the Kissy pictures I posted, but too bad, I love them!"

Plenty of Rizzo's followers shared their love for her and Saget in the comment section of her post.

"You have such a wonderful outlook on your time with Bob and your loss as well," a fan commented, "The surreal-ness doesn't end- 10 years in May for me. It definitely fades though. Sending a hug [heart emoji]. He would be very proud of you."
