But instead to think: How lucky was I that I got to be the one to be married to THE MOST INCREDIBLE MAN ON EARTH." Rizzo expressed her gratitude to be able to love him in the time they had together and that she would continue to "share how amazing he was with the world." Rizzo ended her statement by vocalizing her love for his daughters and, of course, Saget.
