John Mayer Honors Late Friend Bob Saget, Says Bob 'Really Appreciated the Meaning of Life'

John Mayer is honoring his late friend Bob Saget.

The 44-year-old musician attended the Cool Comedy Hot Cuisine: A Tribute to Bob Saget benefiting the Scleroderma Research Foundation held on Wednesday evening (September 21) at the Beverly Wilshire, A Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif.

While on the red carpet, John recalled the “three-hour conversations” he shared with Bob “that spanned time and space.”

“I’m thinking, like we all do, ‘Well, that was a nice dinner. I can’t wait to see him again,’” John shared with People. “But on my way home, [I'd get] a giant text that Bob had dictated into his iPhone, half of which was him railing on Siri. But these incredibly loving texts, after having sat with him for three hours, getting another text of this expression of kindness and love.”

John continued, “He would take it in the car and go, ‘I have to let that man know how special tonight was,’ and that’s the legacy for me. To just let people know as much as you can, not just that you love them, but that the things that you do together are meaningful. I don’t think we let each other know how meaningful these things are.”

“To be able to write someone, and go, ‘Hey, I’m really glad I met you,’ you know, some of those things hit even harder than some of the more didactic things,” John said. “He just really appreciated the meaning of life and the meaningfulness of life.”

Other stars in attendance included Bob‘s Fuller House co-stars John Stamos and wife Caitlin McHugh, Jodie Sweetin, Lori Loughlin, and Scott Weinger along with Rosie O’Donnell, Kathy Griffin, Bill Burr and wife Renee Hill, Joel McHale, Amanda Kloots, Kevin Nealon and wife Susan Yeagley, Regina Hall, Seth Green and wife Clare Grant, Tom Bergeron, and Jimmy Kimmel.

Bob‘s wife Kelly Rizzo and his daughter Lara Saget also attended the benefit.

Bob passed away at the age of 65 back in January from blunt head trauma from an accidental blow to the back of his head.
