Perry died on October 28, 2023, at the age of 54. The famous sitcom actor was found unresponsive in a hot tub in his backyard, and died later on. Since his death, it was announced that he had opioids in his system, and that his death was caused by “acute effects of ketamine.” This was after it was previously thought that his cause of death was drowning.

Perry’s mother, Suzanne Morrison, spoke out on the Today Show in an interview posted Friday, October 25, about her last days with the actor.

“He went through a period, interestingly enough, just before he died when he was showing me one of his new houses,” said Morrison. “He came up to me and he said, ‘I love you so much, and I’m so happy to be with you now. And I’m so…’ It was almost as though it was a premonition or something. I didn’t think about it at the time, but I thought, ‘How long has it been since we’ve had a conversation like that?’ It’s been years.”

Perry’s sister Caitlin Morrison also recently opened up about her late brother.

“He had this ability to fill up a room with light,” said Caitlin Morrison, speaking to Hello! Canada on October 23. “When people were in a room with [him], there was this magnetic energy. Everybody just had a smile on their face, and they clung to everything that he said.”

Caitlin Morrison and her father, Dateline’s Keith Morrison (Perry’s stepfather) created The Matthew Perry Foundation of Canada in honor of their family member. According to the foundations website, the foundation “supports organizations that are directly tackling addiction within their communities.”

“When [Matthew] suddenly died, it was incredibly shocking,” said Keith. “Anybody who has lost a child will tell you that, even if you are in some way prepared for the possibility, it’s shattering. What we have decided to do is hang on to that determination and try to do something useful.”
