One fan left a note that read, “Friends were the answer and solution to my worries before I had words for those feelings. All I know is that every time I have a […] feeling, I can pop a VHS box set (IYKYK) for some reason in the VCR and not just feel okay, but laugh.”
The note continued, “Thank you, Matty, for keeping me calm and happy, from high school to my mid-30s, even though you didn’t know your impact was immeasurable.”
“You were and always will be a friend to many strangers who grew up and depended on you,” the fan wrote. “Thank you for being loyal to us.”

The 54-year-old actress has struggled with addiction for a long time, though it wasn’t until she released her memoir that she opened up and let down her walls about that time in her life.
“[I was] at my highest point in ‘Friends,’ the highest point of my career, an iconic moment on that iconic show,” the actor while promoting his memoir last year. “When you’re a drug addict, everything is math. I don’t do it to feel high or to feel good. I’m definitely not a party person; I just want to sit on my couch, take five Vicodin, and watch a movie. That was heaven for me. It’s not anymore.”
Perry went on to say he had been clean for 18 months in that time, noting, “I probably spent $9 million or something trying to get sober.”
