Fans across the world have paid tribute to the Superstore star who died on Wednesday (August 6).
A Superstore actor has died aged 83, after starring on the comedy TV show between 2015 and 2021.
Speaking to People, his daughter noted that the star’s wife was beside him as he tragically passed away.
“He loved working on Superstore,” his wife told the outlet.
Fans and friends alike have since paid tribute to the actor, who became a staple on the show.
Fellow actress Kelly Stables, who played Kelly on the comedy series, said: “Oh man! He was always so sweet! Rest in peace.”
Writer and producer of the show, Sierra Teller Ornelas, said: “Oh no, he was literally the sweetest man. Prayers up to his family and loved ones.”
Co-star Irene White wrote: “What an incredible man.
“The man was truly an original. I had the pleasure and privilege of working on Superstore for a whole season and every interaction I had with this man never failed to put a smile on my face.
“He was such a kind soul. My condolences go out to his family.”
One fan highlighted just how real the show was, noting: “I am currently a manager for Walmart and this show literally shows what it is to work retail and how hard working people try to survive with retail salaries.
“And I truly love the beauty of this show. Laugh, love, and passion for the work.
“Thank you all of you for showing the good side of it!”
Another wrote: “He always cracked me up so much on that show.
“Superstore was such a comfort show for me when it came out I gotta do a rewatch soon.”
It has been reported that paramedics were called to his home in Los Angeles just over a week ago, after a call was placed for an elderly man who had fallen and was in pain.
Despite the call, an official cause of death has not yet been revealed.
Police did, however, note that he was taken to a local hospital ‘awake and breathing.’
The death of Superstore star Jon Miyahara was first announced by co-star Colton Dunn, who played Garrett in the show.
Revealing the sad news, he said: “John Miyahara aka Brett from Superstore has sadly passed away.
“John was a really awesome guy and as a performer could speak volumes with just a look.”
The actor added: “He was such a memorable part of the Cloud 9 team.
“It was an honor to know him and work with him.
“I was lucky enough to meet some of his family and my thoughts are with them.
“Rest in Peace John.”
