Listen @TeamTeddyRay was funny in every single scenario. On stage, podcasts, in conversation, on set, between takes, TV, everything he was also one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met and in incredibly sad that we’ve lost him. But this makes me laugh. pic.twitter.com/UFSUUTrZTD

“You 36” “double cheeked up on a Thursday” “we are GOOD!” So many lexicons in my daily vocabulary because of Teddy Ray. May he rest in piece ❤️
