Friends actor Matthew Perry was laid to rest in a private memorial service on Friday at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles, with a performance of a powerful 1980s power ballad by Kate Bush and Peter Gabriel
Matthew Perry, best known for his role as Chandler Bing in Friends, was remembered with a touching song at his funeral.
However, the choruses, sung from his partner's perspective, offer words of care, hope, and encouragement. The title of the song might also be a message of strength for others who have struggled with addiction. Matthew went to rehab 15 times between 1994 and his death.He said: "I could handle it, kind of. But by the time I was 34, I was really entrenched in a lot of trouble. But there were years that I was sober during that time. Season 9 was the year that I was sober the whole way through. And guess which season I got nominated for best actor? I was like, 'That should tell me something.
Despite facing many challenges in his life, it was reported that no drugs were found at his home after his sudden passing, and there was no sign of foul play. Later on, it was revealed that initial toxicology tests didn't find any fentanyl or meth in Matthew's system when he died, with the cause of his death still a mystery.
