James Michael Tyler, Central Perk's Gunther on 'Friends,' dies at 59 of prostate cancer

"It's Stage 4, late stage cancer, so eventually, it's gonna probably get me," Tyler said. While he expressed regret for not getting tested sooner, Tyler became an advocate for early testing.

"My goal this past year was to see my 59th birthday. I did that, May 28th," he said. "My goal now is to help save at least one life by coming out with this news." While undergoing treatment, Tyler starred in two short films: "The Gesture and the Word" and"Processing."In 2021, Tyler's spoken word performance of Stephen Kalinich’s poem"If You Knew" was adapted into a short video to raise awareness for the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

Michael is survived by his wife, Jennifer Carno, Carno was described as the"the love of his life, ever united in good times, in sickness, and for eternity."

RIP, Condolence too the family...

'He was young...'

RIP. he looked a cool guy for a side actor.

Among Tyler’s co-stars paying tribute was Jennifer Aniston. 'Friends would not have been the same without you,' she wrote on Instagram with a broken heart emoji. 'Thank you for the laughter you brought to the show and to all of our lives. You will be so missed.'

This is sad. He's not an ordinary 'the other guy' everytime Rachel was on set.

So sad!

Sad. R.I.P

what

Oh man. Bummer. He was a fellow Mississippian

Mr_JCE I’m sorry. James was young. That’s what killed my father after it spread to his kidneys. He was 77 and had it from 1965-1981.

I’m engaged in this, because this is how was how I saw post about Mrs cryptyFlora and decided to give it a try too and luckily it has been well with good results, so I highly recommend cryptyflora

good
