Over a year on from Perry’s death, and his Friends co-stars are still dealing with the loss.
The actors all keep Perry’s memory alive and constantly talk about their late friend, with Kudrow recently sharing that she stumbled across an old note that Perry had penned to her.
As a wrap gift, the Chandler Bing actor gave Kudrow the ‘Cookie Time’ jar from the Friends set, and he even put a note inside the jar, which Kudrow forgot about until recently.
Speaking recently to Drew Barrymore about it on her TV show, Kudrow – who is promoting her new Netflix series No Good Deed – said of the infamous cookie jar: “Matthew gave that to me at the end of our last episode. I had recently found the note that he had in it for me.

“I hadn’t opened it up or looked inside of it. But yeah, he did. He had a note in there and I forgot about it.”
Kudrow didn’t reveal what the note said, but the sweet anecdote sparked Barrymore to say: “Timing is everything.”
Since Perry’s passing, Courteney Cox, who played his on-screen wife in Friends, said that the 54-year-old still ‘visits’ her.
Speaking on CBS News Sunday Morning last year, Cox shared: “I’m so thankful I got to work so closely with him for so many years. He visits me a lot, if we believe in that.”
Revealing more about her spirituality, the Cougar Town star went on: “I talk to my mom, my dad, Matthew. I feel like there are a lot of people that, I think, guide us.

“I do sense — I sense Matthew’s around for sure.”
Five people have been charged in connection to Perry’s death. The defendants include two doctors, Perry’s personal assistant, and two other dealers.
One of the doctors, Mark Chavez, has pleaded guilty to one federal count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine.
Chavez will be sentenced in a Los Angeles court in April.
