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.
