Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Lorraine Bracco are among the 'Sopranos' stars paying tribute to Tony Sirico following the beloved actor's death.
'Sopranos' creator David Chase, left, actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler, center, and Tony Sirico on October 12, 2006 in New York City. Sigler, who played Meadow Soprano on the hit HBO show, took to Instagram and said she was heartbroken after learning that. She shared several photos of her time with Sirico and recalled his generosity, talent and presence in her lengthy caption.
"Oh Tony. I’m so heartbroken. I loved you so much," she wrote."I have never been able to walk into a room that you were in without you giving me an enormous hug, drenching me in your cologne, and making sure I knew any man that came near me would have to answer to you first. You were SUCH a phenomenal actor. Stealing every scene you were in. You were tough, and strong, yet sweet and a real artist. There will never ever be anyone like you.
"A stand up guy who always had my back and who loved my children and my parents," she wrote in her caption."I have a lifetime of memories with Tony— starting with Goodfellas to The Sopranos and way beyond— but my God, did we have fun doing the Bensonhurst Spelling Bee—I’m still laughing. I hope he’s in heaven cracking everybody up now. Love you, my Pal…rest in peace."
