In the poignant video chat shared via John Stamos' Instagram page, the star, alongside his fellow cast members Dave Coulier, Jodie Sweetin, Candace Cameron Bure, and Andrea Barber, shared their love, grief, and cherished memories of the late Saget.

Barber expressed the surreal feeling of the passing time, mentioning the absence of the late comedian's signature texts and compulsive phone calls. Coulier also inserted some humor by reminiscing about times Saget would burst out into song.

He also pointed out that the late father-of-three would have wanted to keep his memory alive by talking about the times they had. Stamos also included a short throwback clip that showed Saget wiping tears from his eyes at Sweetin's wedding, which made the entire cast very emotional.

Stamos, visibly moved, likened the pain to a persistent ache that, over time, became a part of one's existence, though it never truly dissipates. He continued in the caption accompanying the shared clip, reflecting on the passage of two years since his close friend passed. Stamos' shared the evolving nature of grief, writing in part:

"Two years! Hard to believe. As time moves on, that sharp pain I felt at the beginning... it's become a part of me. It doesn't feel as overwhelming as it did in the first year. Maybe I've just gotten used to it, and I'm not sure how I feel about that." 

However, he admitted that Saget would want him to continue living even though he did not want to let the memory fade. In a heartfelt conclusion, he conveyed his deep longing for his friend, stating:

"I guess what I'm trying to say is, I miss him. A lot. Every day. But I'm also grateful for the time we had, for the laughs, for the friendship. He was one of a kind, and I was lucky to call him my friend. I love you Baby. Thanks for being a part of my life." 

Fans resonated with the vulnerability of the post, with one expressing, "This was so vulnerable. Appreciate you all sharing." Another remarked, "Wow, it doesn't feel like 2 years at all," while a third called them a "special group of people." A fourth fan also pointed out their connection, stating, "Friends that become family are everything in this life."

ICYMI, the official cause of Saget's death, determined by the Orange County Medical Examiner's Office in Florida, was attributed to blunt head trauma from an unwitnessed fall and ruled as an accident. 

However, at the time, the term "unwitnessed fall" became a focal point of doubt on social media, where fans expressed their concerns and called for a more in-depth investigation into the circumstances.

One commenter asked, "How do they know it wasn't foul play?" A second person pointed out the unusual response to a severe head injury, stating, "Sounds so weird… if I hit my head that hard, I'm not going back to bed right away. I hit my head on my headboard a lot, but never hard enough for brain bleeding!"

The absence of evidence suggesting an accidental fall within the room also fueled speculation, with fans wondering why there were no signs of attempts to alleviate the injury, such as ice or wet towels. 

In the absence of concrete answers, the lingering uncertainty led many to express their suspicions, like this person, who succinctly stated, "This just sounds suspect."

Reflecting on the overwhelming support after Saget's passing, Rizzo noted, "The outpouring of love around Bob when everything happened … most people still say they've never seen anything like that, so it's a testament to who he was and the impact he made on this world."
