The star of Curb Your Enthusiasm and close friend of Jamie Lee Curtis, Richard Lewis, passed away on Tuesday at the age of 76 after suffering a heart attack. Jamie Lee Curtis recently expressed her deep sadness at his passing.

Famous for playing Laurie Strode in Halloween, the 65-year-old actress co-starred with Lewis in the sitcom Anything But Love, which ran for four seasons from 1989 to 1992.

Curtis posted a number of sentimental pictures of herself and Lewis on Instagram on Wednesday in an attempt to cope with her loss. She shared the deep influence Lewis had on her life in her poignant caption, mentioning how important he was to her sober path. After overcoming an opioid addiction, Curtis just marked 25 years sober, and she gave Lewis credit for assisting her in reaching this goal.

Curtis said, “I just found out that my friend Richard Lewis passed away.” “I can still clearly recall my exact location on Sunset Boulevard when I seen his poster promoting a stand-up special. I urged the casting staff to bring him in to try out for the role of Marty Gold, my best friend and potential boyfriend, during the ABC pilot Anything But Love casting process.
