It’s been 25 years since the death of comedian John Candy, and Ryan Reynolds is remembering the comedy and acting legend.

Ryan posted a sentimental tribute video to John, who was found dead in a Mexican hotel room on March 4, 1994 while working on his last movie, Wagons East. He is thought to have died from a heart attack, though no autopsy was performed.

“It’s the 25th anniversary of John Candy’s passing. We cooked up a small tribute to a comedic genius and Canadian hero. If you haven’t seen much of his work, take a look at his films. He was a treasure. Thanks to @chriscandy4u and @therealjencandy,” Ryan wrote alongside the video, thanking John’s kids Christopher and Jennifer.

RIP, John!
