Courteney, who played Monica Geller on the classic sitcom, shared some personal memories Instagram Page.
“I’m so grateful for every moment I had with you, Matty, and I miss you every day,” the 59-year-old wrote.
“When you work with someone as closely as I do with Matthew, there are thousands of moments I wish I could share. Right now here’s one of my favorites.”
“To give a little backstory, Chandler and Monica were supposed to spend a night in London. But because of the audience’s reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.”
“In that scene, before we started, he whispered a funny line to me.
“He did things like that a lot. He was funny and friendly.”
FOR EVER FRIENDS
Matthew was found dead in his hot tub last month. He was 54.
After weeks of silence, Matt LeBlanc, 56, was the first to deliver an emotional message on Tuesday Instagram.
“It is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye,” he wrote.
“The times we had together were honestly some of the best times of my life.
“It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend.
“I will always smile when I think of you and I will never forget you. Never.”
“Spread your wings and fly, brother, you are finally free. All love.”
The star concluded with a touch of brevity, further demonstrating their friendship.
“And I guess you keep the $20 you owe me.”
SAY GOODBYE
Earlier this month, Matthew’s family and friends gathered in Los Angeles to say an emotional goodbye to the beloved actor.
His funeral took place at the Forest Lawn Church of the Hills, very close to the place where the actor and his comrades filmed the legendary series “Friends” for ten years.
The ceremony in Los Angeles appeared to be an intimate event with about 20 people in attendance.
Matthew’s co-stars Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox and David Schwimmer were all dressed in black as they arrived at the church.
Matt also attended the two-hour service, joining Matthew’s father John Bennett Perry and stepfather Keith Morrison.
Photos showed mourners dressed all in black comforting each other on the funeral home lawn.
