Kudrow echoed Aniston's sentiments, saying, "I really believe that it was that, and Courteney doing that, that really set us up to become one of the closest, most loving and supportive casts in, I’ll say it, the history of television." She added, "We just want to say that we’re deeply, deeply proud to know you."A Tribute to Family and Loved Ones
