Matthew Perry’s Sister Shares Exactly How His ‘Friends’ Co

Matthew Perry’s sister recalled that when their family was grieving his loss, his “Friends” were there to console them as they shared their own heartbreak. Mia Perry Bowick shares a poignant memory from Perry’s funeral in the new three-part Netflix docuseries “The One About Matthew Perry.” She says in the third episode of the show that their family had arranged his 2023 funeral to be open casket “for a little while” so the family could say goodbye. “That was when I completely broke down,” she says in the show. The “Friends” star was found dead on Oct. 28, 2023. His cause of death was later revealed to be the acute effects of ketamine, with contributing factors including drowning, coronary artery disease and the effects of buprenorphine, a medication that’s used to treat opioid use disorder.
