34-year-old Aubrey Saget, who is the daughter of actor and comedian Bob Saget, revealed to the world what her father said shortly before he was found dead in an Orlando hotel room.
In a final text message, Saget told his daughter, “Thank u. Love u. Showtime!”
Saget sent the message before he took the stage at the Ponte Vedra Concert Hall near Jacksonville, FL.
A statement from the sheriff’s office confirmed there was no foul play in Saget’s death nor was there any sign of drug use.
Saget’s family has also released a statement that reads the following:
“We are devastated to confirm that our beloved Bob passed away today. He was everything to us and we want you to know how much he loved his fans, performing live and bringing people from all walks of life together with laughter.”
“Though we ask for privacy at this time, we invite you to join us in remembering the love and laughter that Bob brought to the world.”
Saget is survived by his wife, Kelly Rizzo, as well as three adult daughters — Aubrey, Lara and Jennifer.

Saget left the world with an upbeat message posted to Instagram on Saturday night.
“Okay, I loved tonight’s show @pontevedra_concerthall in Jacksonville. Really nice audience. Lots of positivity. Happened last night in Orlando last night at the Hard Rock Live too. Very appreciative and fun audiences,” he wrote, posting a shorter version of his message on Twitter.
“I had no idea I did a two hour set tonight. I’m back in comedy like I was when I was 26. I guess I’m finding my new voice and loving every moment of it,” he wrote.
“A’ight, see you in two weeks Jan. 28 & 29 @pbimprov with my brother @therealmikeyoung – And check BobSaget.com for my dates in 2022,” he wrote, setting up one final poignant line.
“Goin’ everywhere until I get the special shot. And then probably keep going cause I’m addicted to this s***. Peace out,” he wrote.
