Billy Crystal—who reportedly rushed to the home of Rob Reiner and wife Michele Singer upon receiving a call from their daughter, Romy—broke his silence following the murder of his dear friends.
Crystal released a joint statement with the late couple's closest friends, including Martin Short, Larry David, Albert Brooks and more.
"Absorbing all he had learned from his father Carl and his mentor Norman Lear, Rob Reiner not only was a great comic actor, he became a master story teller," the group began in their lengthy statement shared with AP. "There is no other director who has his range. From comedy to drama to ‘mockumentary’ to documentary he was always at the top of his game. He charmed audiences. They trusted him. They lined up to see his films."
The group continued, "His comedic touch was beyond compare, his love of getting the music of the dialogue just right, and his sharpening of the edge of a drama was simply elegant. For the actors, he loved them. For the writers he made them better. His greatest gift was freedom. If you had an idea, he listened, he brought you into the process. They always felt they were working as a team. To be in his hands as a film maker was a privilege but that is only part of his legacy."
Rob and Michele were found dead in the primary bedroom of their Brentwood, California, home on Sunday, December 14. The late couple's daughter, Romy, reportedly discovered their bodies and immediately called Crystal, a longtime family friend.
Nick Reiner, the couple's youngest son, was taken into custody hours later and booked on first-degree murder charges the following day. He is being held without bail and, if convicted, could face the death penalty.
"Rob was also a passionate, brave citizen, who not only cared for this country he loved, he did everything he could to make it better and with his loving wife Michele, he had the perfect partner. Strong and determined, Michele and Rob Reiner devoted a great deal of their lives for the betterment of our fellow citizens… They were a special force together-dynamic, unselfish and inspiring," the statement continued. "We were their friends, and we will miss them forever."
The joint statement concluded with a quote from one of Reiner's favorite films, It's a Wonderful Life.
"'Each man’s life touches so many other lives, and when he isn’t around, he leaves an awful hole, doesn’t he?’ You have no idea."
