He reciprocated the sentiment by thanking O'Hara and Natasha Lyonne, another co-star, for their heartfelt tributes.

“Thanks for all your kind words and your stories and stuff. You know, you made my kids' dad, their papa, look good. And the most important thing to me is also that their papa understands that he wasn't always his papa; he used to be a kid too, you know?” he said.
