GONE TOO SOON
Bob died on Sunday while staying at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando.

The Sheriff’s Department and fire department responded to the hotel at around 4pm after a hotel staffer discovered Bob’s body.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The circumstances of his death remain unknown.
“Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room,” the Orange County Sheriff’s Office tweeted.
“The man was identified as Robert Saget & pronounced deceased on scene. Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case.”
Bob had been touring the country prior to his death, most recently visiting multiple locations throughout Florida.
He had done a standup show in Jacksonville Saturday night and was due to leave the state the following day.
In the wee hours of the morning, Bob tweeted: “Loved tonight’s show @PV_ConcertHall in Jacksonville. Appreciative audience. Thanks again to @RealTimWilkins for opening.”
“I had no idea I did a 2 hr set tonight. I’m happily addicted again to this s**t. Check http://BobSaget.com for my dates in 2022.”
TMZ has since released more details surrounding Bob’s death.
Citing a police report, the outlet revealed that hotel staff was sent to the room to check on Bob after his family made several failed attempts to reach him.
The staffer knocked on the door several times and got no response, prompting them to enter.
The lights were off in the room, according to the outlet, and Bob was found lying in bed with an arm across his chest.
He was cold to the touch, according to the staffer, and had no pulse.
