He was 81. His wife, Brigitte Poublon, announced the death Tuesday and family friend John Stamos posted her message on Instagram: 'Bobby left this world holding my hand — just as he held up our life with love, courage, and unwavering grace.' Sherman revealed he had Stage 4 cancer earlier this year.
