The Everybody Loves Raymond cast addressed child star Sawyer Sweeten’s tragic death while reflecting on the hit sitcom’s 30th anniversary.

During the CBS reunion special, which premiered on Monday, November 24, stars Ray Romano, Brad Garrett, Patricia Heaton and Monica Horan were joined by Madylin Sweeten and Sullivan Sweeten, who played the younger members of the Barone family when the series aired from 1996 to 2005.

Romano, 67, mentioned the absence of Sullivan’s twin brother, Sawyer — in addition to Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts, who died after the show’s finale.

“Sawyer is no longer with us and we miss him,” Romano said to the studio audience. “He was this bright energy and light.”
