“We went to four floors looking for it … and, of course, he parked right by the entrance. He’s Bob Saget, he’s got rock star parking,” jokes Ross in their impromptu 25-minute eulogy.
Not only did John Mayer and Jeff Ross prove themselves incredible and gracious friends to the late Bob Saget, they offered a beautiful eulogy to one of America’s most beloved comedian, turning a mundane task into something special.
When someone passes, we often don’t think about all those little details that have to be taken care of. But in a 25-minute video posted to Mayer’s Instagram page, these two gentlemen took us inside a necessary responsibility as they went and picked up Bob’s car from the airport.
Bob Saget passed away in his hotel room on Sunday after performing Saturday night in Florida. He’d left his car parked at LAX before he flew out, and so it was that John and Jeff found themselves there, facing an awkward reception.
“This is the only time in my life I’ve been honored to help out a friend at LAX,” said John in the video. “The parking company was, let’s just say unreceptive, to the idea that we were helping out a friend who’s no longer with us.” The total bill for the car was $250.
And that after they apparently spent quite a bit of time searching for the car. “We went to four floors looking for it, trying to figure out where he parked and, of course, he parked right by the entrance. He’s Bob Saget, he’s got rock star parking,” joked Ross.
But that was the mundane details that most of us have come to expect; nothing ever seems to be as easy or straightforward as we might want it to be. When it came to Bob, though, there was one thing that was as easy and straightforward as it came. Bob was unabashedly willing to tell everyone that meant something to him just how he felt about them.
