In the wake of Anne Meara's death, her family — husband Jerry Stiller, son Ben Stiller, and daughter Amy Stiller — released a statement about the beloved actor and comedian.
Over the course of Meara's 60-year career that earned her four Emmy nominations and a Writers Guild Award, she worked with Ben on Reality Bites, Heavy Weights, Zoolander, and Night at the Museum.
And in the last few days, Ben — who is currently filming Zoolander 2 in Rome — has taken to social media to pay his own tribute to his mother.
On Monday, he thanked fans on Twitter.
Thank you so much for all the kind words about Anne. All of us in our family feel so lucky to have had her in our lives.
