What an extraordinarily talented, gracious, artist and dear man you became!! I am profoundly grateful and appreciative to have overlapped your time to delight in how you came to spend your life fortune. You done darn good, Sir.
The Afterlife stage is yours now . . . . but with no more illness, suffering, fears, and worries therein.
Catch you on the other side, but for now a well-deserved:

I don't even know what to say... I never had to the chance to meet you. I always dreamed that I would one day get the chance to meet you and tell you how much you always meant to me and just how much I loved you and peewee and what an impact that you had on my life. You were always a huge part of my childhood and your still a huge part of my life today. It hurts me that I'll never get the chance to tell you all this. But your memory will always live on and you will never be forgotten. Thank you for teaching me that it's ok to be different and to never be afraid of who you really are. I will never forget you. RIP Paul

Paul, growing up you were a huge inspiration to me! You always made me laugh with Pee Wee´s Playhouse and gave me lessons in life I still use today as a businessman, like don´t take life TOO seriously, it´s okay to be kid once in a while even as an adult, and to laugh away any stress that life causes us to experience. But most importantly, to have FUN in life and uplift other people, because we don´t know who around us needs that moment of laughter in times of great private distress. Thank you for the lessons. You are truly a wonderful soul and saw many good things in people that they couldn´t see in themselves. Rest in Peace, I will NEVER forget you, and see you on the other side for the next BIG adventure. Bye Pee-Wee!!!

I´m not really sure what to say. Thank you for being a part of my early life...before life became a reality. Thank you for being that one thing and memory that my mother and I could share, that was just for us. A good one to put it very mildly. You´ll never know how much it meant, or means to me to this day. Those memories, and enjoying your work throughout the rest of my life, means more than can ever be expressed through words. Thank you for sticking up for the little guy, the outcast, the person who doesn´t fit in and for all people. Know you were and are loved and cherished God Bless You Thank You

Condolences to his family and friends. We lost a true comedic genius. I remember watching his work in the mid-1980s. When I heard of his passing, I felt it. I've been re-discovering his work through YouTube and his Instagram page and boy he makes me laugh out loud and smile. There is no one like him. So happy there is more footage, documentary, and a possible autobiography to come.

Paul meant a lot to everyone who cross paths with him in his lifetime whether it was family friends and us Fans from the 70s and 80s who grew up with his shows and movies. I met Paul in Florida mega con and he is by far the nicest sweetest celebrity I had ever met. I'm glad I got to hug him and tell him what he meant to me and all of us. I will always cherish our conversation too.

My condolences to Paul's family, his friends and those who are feeling the loss personally as friends from afar, not having actually met him. I'm one of them, still processing his passing and surprised how it's hitting so hard emotionally. Thank goodness for video. It's been a joy to rediscover Pee-wee again and seeing Paul's other characters and interviews. "Oh, it feels good to laugh!" Bittersweet though. Extremely.
I'm so glad he felt loved and supported and took the time to reflect that back. I miss having him in this world, making his art. May Paul rest in peace.

One of my family remembrances of Paul was early on in his career when his grandmother said to his mother Judy, if you ever let Paul appear on TV with a suit that doesn´t fit I´ll never speak to you again! Who knew this would launch his legendary career.

Paul Rueben A.k.A. Pee-Wee you will be missed although I never got to meet you. I did see u in person in San Antonio, Texas at the Alamo when you were making Pee-Wees big adventures. My hometown. You were trying to greet all ur fans there and I almost got to shake ur hand but I was just a kid as I got Tossed around by the older fans. I'll never 4get that day. Paul Rueben . Alot of us grown up now from that Era are rasing family's, owning our own business, doing our thing but we grew up watching ur shows and movies and it feels like a piece of my childhood died with you. I was devastated hearing about ur passing it was a sad day for the entertainment . I just hope when it's my time I'll get that Chace to really shake ur hand this time and have a conversion with you. As I always wished I did that time u were in San Antonio. R.I.H.P. MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD LEDGEND. YOULL NEVER BE 4GOTTEN. IN LOVING MEMORIES OF PAUL RUEBEN A.K.A PEE-WEE.... OH I 4GOT TO TELL YOU PEE-WEE THERES NO BASEMENT AT THE ALAMO! ALSO TODAYS WORD OF THE DAY IS GOOD-BYE PEE-WEE HERMAN

To Family and Friends of Mr. Paul Reubens,
We are truly saddened to hear about the death of Mr. Paul Reubens, and we send our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. We have certainly lost a creative, talented person who will certainly be missed by all who love him. I fondly remember watching "Pee-Wee´s Playhouse" in the 1980s. He delighted children and parents alike with his with joy, creativity, and laughter. I love Pee-Wee's bicycle. I still remember that catch phrases - "I know you are, but what am I?" from Pee-Wee´s Playhouse. Pee-Wee Herman was unique, and I don´t think anyone else could have played him so vividly except Paul Reubens. It´s been said that "If Paul Reubens hadn't invented him, nobody else would have." You said posthumously "I enjoyed making art for you." We enjoyed your art. Thank you, Mr. Reubens, for sharing your creative artistic talents and gifts with us. Your legacy will last.
Please continue to treasure your good memories and may they soothe your saddened hearts. May prayers strengthen you and cherished memories comfort you, and may God soothe your hearts and comfort you always. Psalm 23

My condolences to your family and friends. I'm going to miss you, my friend in my head! You were brilliant, talented and one-of-kind. You invoked a belief in adults that we could relish in our childhood forever. Just a month ago I suggested to my nieces that we watch a Pee Herman movie together! No one will ever fill your shoes! I thank you for making me laugh when I may have not been in the mood. Paul Reubens, you will be sorely missed, but NEVER forgotten!!! Love ya!!!

I am a long time fan of Paul's work. Coincidentally, I started watching Peewee's Playhouse on Youtube about three weeks ago and was delighted with how well it had aged.
I hope Paul's final years were not too difficult, and am gratified to hear he had a loving family to support him.
He will be missed, but will live on through his work!

Paul / Pee Wee,
I usually don't get emotional when a movie star passes away but this time it was a little different. I always have enjoyed you in my childhood and later in the years when I had my own children I still introduced them to Pee-Wee's playhouse and the Pee Wee movies. As an adult I enjoyed you and many other films too. Such a talented person with a huge heart. I will always remember you Thank you for the great memories. Rest in peace Paul

To his family and friends, I wish you comfort...NOT having Paul Reubens in the biosphere anymore leaves a huge hole in the web of life. Such a bright, funny and sweet human, who entertained us all with such wildly hilarious, uninhibited abandon. I love the playhouse and his movies and still watch them to get instant snorty laughs. As Conan O'Brien recently said in a tribute, "We will not see his like again." God, I absolutely adored this one.

One of my favorite actors of all time since I was a kid. Had plans to finally meet one of my idols in 2015 at a Comic Con but Paul had to cancel. His movies and TV show kept me happy through some very rough times in my life. Thank you for everything. May God Bless You.

I pray every night that God holds you and protects you. Hopefully you will have a peaceful eternal rest.

My heart is so incredibly heavy at this tragic loss.
Thank you Paul, "Pee Wee", so much for the many years and endless hours of joy, fun and entertainment you brought to my family and I. In the "non-creepiest" of ways you were family as we spent in incalculable amount of time "with you" ... first via TV, then VHS, then DVD.
We had so hoped for your live tour to resume in hopes of purchasing your VIP experience in hopes of meeting you.
You truly were and still are loved, treasured and adored by many--and are a true legend, legacy and "rebel".
May you rest in eternal peace in Gods loving arms.
Love you Paul.

My father died of cancer July 21st, over a week before. He was 72. I read that Paul was also taking care of his father 20 years prior. Paul's loss is very heartfelt. I am endeared by his kindness. Thank you for touching my life! I loved you as a kid, and I love you even more knowing how you also cared for your father and also passed just a week after my own father died. My father did stand-up comedy around Orange County and Los Angeles. I hope you're both sharing laughs in Heaven now. Blessings Dear Paul!

I was shocked and deeply saddened by his untimely death. I had a suit just like his in High school; in fact, one time I dressed as Pee-Wee Herman for a Halloween party where I worked, at the phone company in Houston. Everyone loved it. I wish I had the photos, but I do have my photo from High school. All I needed was a red bow tie. May he Rest in his Heavenly Playhouse.

Pee Wee is truly an American Icon, I love his timelessness.
I never had the privilege of meeting Mr. Reubens in person but he always seemed so gracious and kind during interviews.
His work will be a joy forever and that is a beautiful thing.
I am grateful he happened in my time.
I offer my condolences to all of Paul's family and friends, so sorry for the tremendous loss.

I am heartbroken. I´ve been a diehard fan since his early days on Letterman. I was lucky enough to receive 8 minutes of birthday wishes, song & plenty of PeeWee fun from Paul via Cameo 2 years ago. He was a beautiful person and will live on via PeeWee Herman for future generations. My heart goes out to his family and close friends.
