She continued, "We all experience loss at some point in our lives. Loss of life or loss of love.

"Being able to really SIT in this grief allows you to feel the moments of joy and gratitude for having loved someone that deep. And we loved him deeply. He was such a part of our DNA."

The Bruce Almighty star, who also recently lost her father, daytime TV legend John Aniston, further wrote, "We were always the 6 of us. This was a chosen family that forever changed the course of who we were and what our path was going to be."

Noting that Perry made it his mission in life to always "make people laugh," she concluded, "Matty, I love you so much and I know you are now completely at peace and out of any pain."

"I talk to you every day, sometimes I can almost hear you saying 'could you BE any crazier?' Rest little brother. You always made my day."
