Co-stars of Matthew Perry from Friends were seen consoling each other outside the church where the 54-year-old actor was laid to rest. Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, and David Schwimmer arrived at Forest Lawn cemetery in Los Angeles, all dressed in black suits and somber as they prepared to say their final goodbyes to Perry. Matt LeBlanc also joined them outside the church after the hour-long ceremony.

Perry's tearful mother Suzanne Morrison, his stepfather Keith Morrison, and his father John Perry attended the private event as well. Keith Morrison served as one of the pallbearers.

An onlooker described the gathering as high profile, with Jennifer Aniston being one of the first to arrive. Forest Lawn cemetery is located opposite Warner Bros Studios, where Friends was filmed, and is the final resting place for numerous Hollywood stars.

The funeral service ended with a rendition of Peter Gabriel's song "Don't Give Up", which left not a dry eye in the room. The service was simple and only close friends and family spoke. Perry was then buried in a private family ceremony. After the service, mourners gathered outside the church, embracing and comforting each other. Many wore dark sunglasses to shield their eyes from the bright Californian sun. The Hollywood stars buried in the beautiful parkland of Forest Lawn include Carrie Fisher, Bette Davis, Stan Laurel, Buster Keaton, Michael Hutchence, and Anne Heche. Perry's cause of death has not been confirmed yet, but initial toxicology reports ruled out the presence of meth or fentanyl in his system when he drowned.

Throughout his life, Perry had been open about his struggles with drugs and alcohol.
