David Spade Paid A Heartbreaking Tribute To His Sister-In-Law, Kate Spade

"She could make me laugh so hard. I still cant believe it."

Fashion designer Kate Spade was found dead Tuesday after reportedly killing herself.

Many people mourned the loss of the fashion icon on the internet, including some celebrities.

Kate Spade was more than a designer. She had a quirky visual language that captivated Bat Mitzvah girls and artists alike. She was also a staple of NYC who spread good will. My heart breaks for her family. Thank you, Kate, from one of the millions you made feel beautiful.

My grandmother gave me my first Kate Spade bag when I was in college. I still have it. Holding Kate’s family, friends and loved ones in my heart.

David Spade joined the chorus of voices not just as a member of Hollywood, but as Spade's brother-in-law.

"Katy at my book signing. I love this pic of her. So pretty," he wrote on Twitter. "I don't think everyone knew how fucking funny she was... It's a rough world out there people. Try to hang on."
