As an ardent fan who has followed the lives of both Teri Garr and David Letterman for many years, I can confidently say that their bond was truly special. The moment when Letterman revealed Teri as his all-time favorite guest on his show was undeniably emotional, not just because of her untimely passing but also due to the genuine connection they shared.
David Letterman recently shared that Teri Garr, who tragically passed away at 79, was his most cherished guest on his self-titled talk show. On October 29, he publicly declared this during a Tuesday announcement, praising her as the standout celebrity among all those he hosted over the years.
In his memorial post on Instagram, David Letterman reminisced about one of his cherished guests, Teri Garr, by sharing an old clip from The Late Show featuring them. He captioned it, “Remembering a beloved guest, Teri Garr #RIP.” In the video, they chatted about what Teri might say if she won Best Supporting Actress for Tootsie at the 1983 Academy Awards.
In a recorded conversation, Letterman congratulated Garr on her success and expressed his belief that it was well-deserved. He further wished her to be enjoying it. Before asking if she had any words prepared for an imaginary Oscar acceptance speech, he mentioned. Garr confessed that she hadn’t thought about it until then.
She agreed with him, acknowledging she needed to come up with something, “It seems you’re correct.” Later, jokingly, she mused about acknowledging those who hadn’t assisted her instead of thanking the helpful ones. She then clarified, “I understand it’s not the done thing; one should be polite and courteous,” but added with a laugh, “But I’m just being honest – I’m human.
On October 29th, it was announced by the actress’s representative, Heidi Schaeffer, in a statement that she had passed away due to complications from Multiple Sclerosis, with her loved ones by her side.
Garr was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in the late 1990s following symptoms that emerged during filming for One From the Heart and Tootsie. In 2006, she published her memoir, Speedbumps: Navigating Hollywood, where she openly discussed her health struggles. “MS is a cunning illness,” she penned in an excerpt shared by People magazine. Reflecting on her past relationships, she humorously observed how her condition would unexpectedly show up at inconvenient moments before vanishing again, leading to over two decades of misdiagnosis.
Later on, Garr assumed the role of a national representative for the Multiple Sclerosis Society, also chairing their Women Against MS initiative. In 2005, she shared in Brain and Life magazine that, although her instinct was to keep going, she was making a conscious effort to decrease her pace due to the potentially harmful effects of stress and anxiety on individuals with Multiple Sclerosis.
