Deputies in Orange County, Florida, were called Sunday about an "unresponsive man" in a hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando and found Saget dead, according to a sheriff's statement on Twitter. Detectives found "no signs of foul play or drug use in this case."
In a statement Sunday, Saget's family said they are "devastated to confirm that our beloved Bob passed away today. Though we ask for privacy at this time, we invite you to join us in remembering the love and laughter that Bob brought to the world."
John Stamos, who co-starred with Saget on Full House, wrote, "I am broken. I am gutted. I am in complete and utter shock. I will never ever have another friend like him. I love you so much Bobby."
"I have no words. Bob was one of the best human beings I've ever known in my life. I loved him so much," said Candace Cameron Bure, who played Saget's daughter on "Full House."
