Stars close to the late veteran actor gathered Sunday to share their condolences of Alan Thicke.
Among them were Leonardo DiCaprio, Bob Saget, Kirk Cameron, as well as Thicke’s three sons Robin, Brennan, and Carter. Also involved were Thicke’s Growing Pains co-stars Joanna Kerns and Tracey Gold. Thicke played Jason Seaver, the patriarch of the family, known for giving timeless fatherly advice.
“Tonight’s memorial for Alan was just about perfect,” an attendee wrote after the service. “So much family and so many historic friends came out to remember our beloved father-figure. Speaking for Alan so beautifully was (I’m realising now) an all-star cast. We heard from our own Robin Thicke who brought up all dear dad’s best friends, Bob Saget, Bill Maher, Alex Trebec (sic) who I had no idea had such old deep ties to our family, the entire cast of Growing Pains including Leo and Kirk Cameron who I had the pleasure of meeting for the first time, along with his wife who became an instant friend.”
Son and singer Robin told the Los Angeles Times that his father was “the greatest man I ever met,” and added that he was “always a gentleman.”
“I saw him a few days ago and told him how much I loved and respected him,” Robin concluded.
“Alan was a devoted father, husband, friend and role model,” DiCaprio wrote on Facebook following Thicke’s passing. “He knew how to harness the power of the entertainment industry to be a positive influence in so many lives – including mine. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity I had to work with Alan early in my career…”
Thicke passed away last Tuesday, and his cause of death has not been released.
