Read John Stamos' eulogy to Bob Saget: "Bob put it all on the table for us — leaving nothing behind"

Los Angeles Times

"When the news broke, I broke," Stamos said at his close friend and Full House co-star's funeral last Friday. "I was shattered and felt worthless to help anyone else. But my supportive wife picked me up, threw me in the car and drove to Bob and Kelly’s house. That’s what Bob would have done if it were the other way around. I slipped into the backyard by myself. His last cigar was sitting in an ashtray by the jacuzzi. It was windy and balmy. I looked up to the sky and said, 'Baby, please give me a sign from up there.' (I called him Baby because that’s how he entered his info into my phone years ago.) 'Tell me you’re alright. Tell me not to feel bad.' I waited a few minutes. Nothing. Asked again. Silence. I was contemplating heaven, hell and heartbreak when all of a sudden a tiny hummingbird came fluttering down from above and landed on a tree right in front of me. (I swear this is true. I even took a little video with my phone.) I’ve always felt hummingbirds represented my parents, and this one was definitely my mother, who had red hair: She had bright red feathers around her neck like a scarf. She assured me Bob was OK and to stop looking for goofy signs. (How rude!) Then she flew up and away. I want signs from Bob, damn it! I want to be haunted by him! The void is maddening! Then this thought washed over me: Maybe, just maybe, his soul might be at peace? The only reason to rattle the thunder and part the clouds is that you are restless in the afterlife, right? That you have unfinished business and haven’t said what you needed to say to the ones you love. We all know that’s not Bob."
