Chief Medical Examiner Joshua Stephany, MD later revealed in a toxicology analysis thatSaget’s death was “the result of blunt head trauma,” ruling the manner of his passing an accident not tied to any illicit drugs or toxins. Additionally,the comedian’s autopsyreport indicated he had severe fractures to the back of his head and around his eyes when he died.
Saget was also positive forCOVID-19and was taking clonazepam, a prescription drug that helps treat seizures, panic disorder and anxiety. He had aortic atherosclerosis (plaque build-up inside the wall of the aorta), cardiomegaly (an enlarged heart) and coronary artery atherosclerosis (damage or disease in the heart’s major blood vessels).
In the months since his death, Saget’s family has honored the late actor on social media multiple times.
In a post on Instagram in early February, daughter Larawrote in part, “It is a gift to know that nothing was left unsaid. That I love you is all that matters and that I wouldn’t have done anything differently.”

“My dad recently said that all he wanted to do was to make people laugh and to spread kindness and love,” she added. “For me, to honor him is to live that. No matter what life throws, be kind and love fully. And tell people how much I love them.”
Rizzo, who met Saget in 2015 andmarried him three years later, recently marked the two-month anniversary of her husband’s death with a tribute post of her own.
“I’ve experienced that now time means nothing and everything at the same time,” she wrote in the post. “You count the weeks, and the months, they’re strange and surreal milestones. How can it be 2 months without you?? But also it feels like yesterday you were here — and it still also feels like you never left?”
“I like to say it’s all a very weird new universe. Learning how to navigate it is quite the journey 💫” she added.
