Late actor Matthew Perry, who famously starred as one of TV's most beloved characters Chandler Bing on the hit TV sitcom F.R.I.E.N.D.S from 1994-2004, was remembered at the 75th Emmy Awards' In Memoriam segment. At the award show, singer Charlie Puth and singer-songwriter duo Michael Trotter Jr and Tanya Trotter of The War And Treaty performed. They started with an emotional See You Again, which was followed by a cover of the F.R.I.E.N.D.S theme song I'll Be There For You by The Rembrandts as Matthew Perry's picture surfaced in the slideshow. United by grief, fans of the late actor, shared the moment that had them sobbing at this year's Emmys.
