Michael J. Fox definitely appreciated Matthew Perry's sizable donation to his Parkinson's foundation, but one of the things he liked best about it was that Perry did it discreetly: "it wasn't accompanied by any self-aggrandizing or anything, he was just like, 'Take it and do your best.' I loved that." We love that too!
It wasn't just Perry giving money to a random charity. Fox and Perry were friends; they were both Canadian, and they had a mutual love of hockey — it is the Canadian national sport, and we're happy to see that two of them could bond over the sport they'd played growing up, even though they'd both moved to Los Angeles. "Matthew and I had spent some time together over the years," Fox explained to Entertainment Tonight. "He was a hockey player, a good hockey player, and we played hockey together." Perry's love for hockey was also known within the NHL, and at a couple of NHL games after Perry's death, organists sweetly played a version of the "Friends" theme song in his honor.
