14 DAY TRIAL // James Gandolfini was one of the 5 television personalities who died last year and were included in the In Memoriam segment at the Emmys 2013. It was his “Sopranos” co-star Edie Falco who delivered a few words in memory of the star.
You can see her incredibly emotional speech in the video above.
“He has tremendous warmth and heart. He was far more interested in turning the light onto people he thought were more worth,” Edie said of the late actor, noting his “fierce loyalty to his friends” among his most admirable qualities.
To many fans, James was just a very talented actor. To her and those who got to work with him, he was an incredible human being who had brought light into their life.
“It’s Jim the man, the very dear man, that I will miss the most,” Edie said, barely fighting back tears.
