In a heartfelt interview with People magazine, Keith Morrison, stepfather of late actor Matthew Perry, shared how the family is working to keep Perry’s legacy alive in a way that honors his deepest wishes. Perry, beloved for his role as Chandler Bing on Friends, was found unresponsive in his Los Angeles home in October of last year, a loss attributed to an accidental overdose. His passing left an indelible mark on fans worldwide, but for his family, it sparked a mission to fulfill his wish to make a difference.

Morrison, speaking about the tragic news that changed their lives, reflected, “We are like millions of families who have had to wake up to the painful call that a loved one has unexpectedly passed away due to overdose.” The veteran journalist acknowledged that while Perry’s fame may make their grief public, they share the same sense of loss as countless others who have faced similar tragedies.

He continued, “Our family isn’t unique. Although Matthew was well-known, we’re one among millions of families who have suffered this kind of loss.” Morrison expressed his gratitude for those who have shown support, saying he feels a kinship with other families going through similar struggles.

Perry’s family is now driven by a common goal: to continue his work in raising awareness and helping others who are struggling. “Matthew wanted to be remembered for helping people more than for his fame,” Morrison shared, noting that carrying out this mission has become a purpose for those he left behind.

In addition to Morrison, Perry’s sister, Caitlin Morrison, has also dedicated herself to her brother’s legacy. In an interview with HELLO! Canada, she shared that she oversees a foundation in his name. Caitlin described the work as something deeply meaningful, saying, “It’s like sitting right next to Matthew, working alongside him every day on something he truly believed in.”

As the family pursues these efforts, they remain focused on ensuring that Perry’s life and legacy reflect his compassion for others and his desire to make a lasting impact.
