He also had an older sister who passed away at 34 from a brain aneurysm.

I had no idea about his older sister. How tragic for the family.

I also keep reading about how kind he was. What an amazing way to be remembered. I hope he knew that people thought so much of him.

Bob's sister who died at 47 had scleroderma, and Bob did a lot to raise awareness and funding for that illness in the years since her diagnosis and death. A friend was diagnosed with that a few years ago and I owe most of my knowledge about it to Bob Saget.

Very, very sad. Way too young. I was truly stunned at his passing.

RIP, Bob!

He directed a TV movie in 1996 about a woman dealing with Scleroderma based on his sister:

For Hope

My mom died from this disease. The movie is well done, but very, very hard to watch.

I didn't know this about your Mom, Alta, and about Bob Saget's sister. My cousin died from it as well.
