Grief, unfortunately, can be a powerful teacher. That was exactly the case for Candace Cameron Bure who, along with the rest of the Full House cast, bid an untimely farewell to their colleague Bob Saget in early 2022. But when Saget died, it also cemented an important lesson for Bure concerning appreciation and loss. Saget was just 65 when he died on January 9 of last year after suffering blunt trauma to the head. Since then, he has been honored and mourned by his wife Kelly Rizzo as well as his former colleagues from Full House, some of whom wish to do a future project together in his name. Until then, Bure carries with her a lesson she learned thanks to her association with Saget - reinforced by his passing.
