David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow were the latest of the Friends cast to share poignant tributes remembering their time with the late Matthew Perry, rounding out the remaining core cast following tributes by Matt LeBlanc, Courteney Cox, and Jennifer Aniston.

Both took to Instagram to honor Perry who died on October 28 at the age of 54.


Schwimmer shared a photo of him and Perry on set during one of their throwback college scenes, one of Schwimmer's "favorite moments" with his costar.

He wrote:

"Matty, Thank you for ten incredible years of laughter and creativity."
"I will never forget your impeccable comic timing and delivery. You could take a straight line of dialogue and bend it to your will, resulting in something so entirely original and unexpectedly funny it still astonishes."
"And you had heart. Which you were generous with, and shared with us, so we could create a family out of six strangers."

He continued:

"This photo is from one of my favorite moments with you. Now it makes me smile and grieve at the same time."
"I imagine you up there, somewhere, in the same white suit, hands in your pockets, looking around— 'Could there BE any more clouds?'"


Kudrow shared a photo of herself with Perry after wrapping the pilot for Friends, writing:

“Shot the pilot, Friends Like Us, got picked up then immediately, we were at the NBC Upfronts."
“You suggested we play poker AND made it so much fun while we initially bonded. Thank you for that. Thank you for making me laugh so hard at something you said, that my muscles ached, and tears poured down my face EVERY DAY.”

She finished her post expressing gratitude for her time with Perry.

“Thank you for your open heart in a six-way relationship that required compromise. And a lot of ‘talking.’"
"Thank you for showing up at work when you weren’t well and then, being completely brilliant. Thank you for the best 10 years a person gets to have. Thank you for trusting me."
"Thank you for all I learned about GRACE and LOVE through knowing you. Thank you for the time I got to have with you, Matthew.”

People on social media thanked Kudrow and Schwimmer for their touching words about Perry and offered their condolences to the grieving friends.











In a joint statement released to PEOPLE on October 31, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow all honored the late actor, saying:

“We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family."
"There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss."
"In time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty’s family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world.”
