Jennifer and Lisa had attendees laughing as they paid tribute to their co-star from behind the podium.

‘We’re very honored to be here today to speak on your behalf as your co-workers, your friends, and your family, your sisters,’ Jennifer began, according to ET Online. ‘And that’s happened since we’ve known you for a very long time.’

‘It’s been that way since we met almost 30 years ago,’ Lisa said before Jennifer chimed in with the joke: ‘No, not 30 years ago. That’s a typo.’

‘To be friends with Courteney is to be family with Courteney. She is responsible for all of that. From the beginning of when we met her, she was immediately inclusive, warm, loving, interested in everything about you,’ Jennifer continued.

The duo also recalled their first time meeting Courteney, and joked she was the most famous out of all her Friends co-stars.

They also remembered just how much Courteney ‘hated’ playing poker, a game the cast played with one another in order to bond.

‘She hated poker. Like, loathed it from the bottom of her heart. But she played with us ’cause she wanted to bond with us,’ Jennifer said.

Kudrow shared how they all learned about house flipping from Courteney: ‘And I remember Courtney saying, “Y’all, look, I’ve made more money with the houses than acting.”‘
