“John was getting ready to leave the house, I guess, and [his wife]Caitlin [McHugh]looked at him and was like, ‘You can’t wear that shirt. That shirt’s not working. It doesn’t look good.’ He’s like, ‘Ugh, fine,'” Sweetin, 40, recalled. “So he goes up to his closet, grabs a black button-up shirt, gets in the car. He’s like ‘Why is this shirt so big? Why is this shirt so big?’ He realized it was one of the shirts [Bob’s wife]Kelly [Rizzo]had given him out of Bob’s closet, and it was this black button-up that Bob would always wear.”
Sweetin continued, “It was Bob’s shirt, so Bob was there in this weird little way. I hugged John and then l like, kissed the shirt. I was like, ‘Bob’s here too.'”
