Bob Saget had a heart for life, and John Mayer remembers that fondly.
After the βFull Houseβ starβs tragic death at 65 in 2022, the musician, 47, lost a close friend but continues to live by the words and actions the late comedian taught him.
βBeing there for other people,β Mayer exclusively told The Post during the Scleroderma Research Foundationβs βCool Comedy β’ Hot Cuisineβ event in LA on Tuesday. βKnowing when to remind someone that their troubles arenβt as bad as they might think by joking about it and getting them to laugh.β
βI think Bob was one of those rare people who could press on those walls of rules,β continued the artist. βHe could press on them and move them and he really delighted people when he did that, and sometimes I have to remember that itβs okay to bring your favorite soft drink that the [place] doesnβt offer with you in your pockets to the restaurant, which I did after he died.β
βI went, βI really want Spindrift at this restaurant, and they donβt have it so Iβm bringing it.β And I was like, βCan I get a glass for the two Spindrifts that I brought?β And that felt very Bob to me because he really bravely did kind off pushed on customs, and people loved him more for it.β
And Mayer keeps Sagetβs memory alive by telling stories of the beloved actor.
βI like to tell people, thereβs this one intersection β and I know youβre the New York Post but letβs get Beverly Hills-centric here for one minute,β the singer recalled. βThereβs one intersection right next to the Beverly Hills hotel that has like six lanes and Bob said the rule is the nicest car goes first.β
βAnd every time that I drive through that intersection and thereβs someone in the car with me, I tell the story. I get great pride and I feel a great connection to Bob when I get to tell stories about my old friend, Bob.β
Another way Mayer honors Saget is by showing up and supporting the work the fallen star started many years ago with the Scleroderma Research Foundation.
βEven continuing on with events like this,β he remarked. βThis is a way for everyone to miss him together.β
With Sagetβs three-year death anniversary swiftly approaching, Mayer shed light on how he navigates his grief.
βHave fun remembering him.β he shared. βI like when he comes to life through my memory. I like telling people about my friend Bob.β
As for the best piece of advice Bob ever gave him?
βSee, the right answer is something really dirty that only he could think of,β Mayer teased. βSo, I love you, Bob. What do I say? Give me some divine inspiration to kill my career right here in the microphone because Iβm no Bob Saget!β
All jokes aside, the late actor had an important message for his loved ones.
βHe was always about taking care of yourself,β reflected Mayer. βIf I was working really hard and I was on the road and everyone was like, βThis is really cool youβre playing all these different shows and these different bands,β Bobβs number one care is that I was taking care of myself so I continue to take care of myself with him in mind.β
As Mayer put it, Saget was βdeeply, deeply sensitive.β
The stand-up passed away suddenly on January 9, 2022, at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando, Florida. His autopsy determined that his death was an accident caused by blunt head trauma, resulting in a brain bleed.
His widow, Kelly Rizzo, hosted the event alongside Mayer and told the Post what she has learned from the tragedy.
βWe truly have no idea when itβs just going to be taken away from us instantaneously,β shared the blogger. βTell your loved ones that you love them. Hug them. Say it often. Say it as much as you can.β
