Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen were among dozens of celebrities who paid tribute to Bob Saget following the actor and comedian's sudden death over the weekend.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office also shared some details on Twitter, writing, "Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room. The man was identified as Robert Saget & pronounced deceased on scene. Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case."The Olsen twins, who began their careers on ABC's classic sitcom Full House, worked with Bob during the original series' run throughout the late '80s and early '90s.

Mary-Kate and Ashley first rose to fame playing Michelle, the youngest member of Full House's Tanner family, as infants and, later, young children. Bob played their dad, Danny Tanner.

Full House wrapped in 1995 and neither Mary-Kate nor Ashley returned for the show's 21st-century reboot, where Bob reprised his character alongside John Stamos, Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin, Andrea Barber, and Lori Loughlin.


But the trio kept in touch after the Full House finale. They were photographed at multiple events together over the next two decades. Below, Mary-Kate and Ashley are pictured with Bob and his daughter, Aubrey Saget, at a gala in 2010.


After Bob's sudden death, the twins praised him as a "loving, compassionate, and generous man" in a statement, as People reports.


"Bob was the most loving, compassionate, and generous man," said Mary-Kate and Ashley. "We are deeply saddened that he is no longer with us but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as gracefully as he always has."


"We are thinking of his daughters, wife, and family and are sending our condolences," the statement concluded.
